Do you think being a parent is selfless or selfish? That is one of those questions that I can’t quite answer straightforwardly. On one hand, it is incredibly giving to put the well-being of another person above your dreams and desires. On the other hand, people do not have kids because they’re morally upstanding. They …

The Wildest Parenting Texts of the Week (June 25, 2024)
You can tell a lot about the relationship between a kid and their parent by how the parent speaks to them. There’s a difference between being strict and being needlessly cruel, and many parents like to tow that line through how they communicate with their children. If you’ve ever gone to a friend’s house with …

Many parents don’t understand the difference between being strict and cruel. I’m not saying that every parent needs to partake in «gentle parenting,» but too many parents out there are downright mean to their kids because they enjoy using their power over them. There’s no reason to hurl insults at your child because they’re doing …

Parenting comes with a lot of guilt. From the second you get pregnant, you hear all sorts of people telling you you’re doing it wrong, explaining how you could do it better, and implying that your mistakes are way bigger than you actually are. As your kids get older, you hear this sort of unsolicited …

When you’re a kid, it’s hard to know whether your parents are unusually crazy. Your home is usually all you know, and going over to friends’ houses doesn’t always paint a realistic picture of how they’re normally treated. You might’ve felt something off about your parents and later found out there actually was something nefarious …

Every kid deserves parents, but not every parent deserves a kid. Every kid in the world deserves to be loved and taken care of, but unfortunately, there are more kids than fit parents in the world. It’s objectively good for the population that it’s so easy to have a baby, and I’m not one of …

The Wildest Parenting Texts of the Week (May 21, 2024)
One of the wildest types of parents are those who helicopter parent into their child’s adulthood. I can’t imagine my parents handling my affairs in college, let alone in my day-to-day life as a grown-up with a job. I know that most adult children who find themselves on the receiving end of this «help» aren’t …

Mother’s Day weekend isn’t fun for everybody. Your mom might live thousands of miles away, robbing both of you of the chance to hang out with each other and celebrate her. You might be living without a mother or a grandmother, which made you spend all of Sunday mourning and missing them. Unfortunately, not everyone …

The Wildest Parenting Texts of the Week (May 7, 2024)
Every parent has a different level of involvement in their kid’s life once they become adults. Some adult children call their parents multiple times a day, consulting them on every decision they make, whether it’s big or small. Some parents still provide housing and food for their kids years after graduating high school or college. …

‘I feel like you’d be overweight in the near future’: Man gets chewed out after dumping date for eating a salad
The ick is a complicated phenomenon in the already complex world of dating. Sometimes it arrives due to legitimate and even necessary reasons, other times it feels like a dumb game that your subconscious is playing against you. Either way, it is a very delicate topic to approach with your former crush. Often, it’s just …
