The Cringiest Mommy Facebook Posts of the Week (April 24, 2023)

Twenty years ago, parenting books used to be where it was at. Parents who had a million questions about how they should raise their kids didn’t go around posting about it on their MySpace pages. They went to Borders, Books A Million, and other now-defunct stores and bought a bunch of books about it! While …

One of the most challenging parts of being a parent is the lack of sleep. Kids wear you down to the point of exhaustion and keep you up at night worrying about them. It’s an incredibly unfair catch-22 of the human experience. My poor mother has been unable to sleep since I was born, and I …

Insanely Cringey Posts From Mommy Facebook Groups

Like many other towns across the country, my hometown had an infamous mommy Facebook group. The group was a running joke at my high school because the mothers involved just didn’t know how to behave themselves. They would constantly bicker with each other over everything and nothing at the same time. Popular topics of conversation …

It’s difficult to keep the magic of the Easter Bunny alive for your kids. Santa is relatively easy because you can meet a man at a shopping mall that will convincingly portray him. The Tooth Fairy is simple: your kid never sees her unless you mess up or they’re a super light sleeper. The Easter …

There is an epidemic sweeping our nation right now. It’s hard for me to articulate this without getting emotional, but the store Target is selling shirts for toddlers with rainbows on them. This is a national emergency and needs to be addressed by the leaders of this great nation sooner rather than later.  I’m making …

The Funniest Parenting Tweets of the Week (March 23, 2023)

One of the most complex parts of parenting is deciding when a kid is old enough for certain things. When I was a kid, it was a lot easier to keep kids away from inappropriate content. Elementary school children were not running around with iPads because they hadn’t been invented yet. It was normal for …

The Cringiest Parenting Posts of the Week (March 21, 2023)

Parenting Facebook groups have obsessions with the many «natural remedies» they think will cure all childhood ailments. My favorite supposed cure-all miracle is breastmilk. For some reason, crunchy moms think that breastmilk can do anything. I will give credit where credit is due: breastmilk offers babies essential nutrients they can’t get anywhere else. Unfortunately, breast …

Parents embarrass their kids all the time. It’s a natural part of the parent-child relationship, and it’s often completely unavoidable. Once a child becomes a tween, they can’t stand to be seen with their parents in public. Tweens want their parents to drop them off at the mall far out of the view of any …

Why do so many young parents want their kids to have unique names? Do they know that having a unique name doesn’t make them a unique person? I’m lucky enough to have a name unique enough that I never have to go by my last initial but normal enough that I’ve never been bullied for …

The Funniest Parenting Tweets of the Week (February 23, 2023)

One of the most popular stereotypes about parents is that once someone has kids, something shifts in their brain that makes them feel like the most esoteric person alive. They smugly remark on how different the world looks now that they’ve got kids, implying that they’ve got something far more important in their lives than …
