Why do we as mothers place SO much damn pressure on ourselves to the point where sometimes we make ourselves sick? Sometimes the guilt trip we put ourselves through is enough to make us go through an anxiety tunnel that we cannot get ourselves back from. We judge what each other do and we are always trying to one up ourselves....for WHAT! I am so sick of trying to keep up with this shit...it is so damn exhausting. She must speak in full sentences by this time, she must walk by this time, this class that class this preschool NO that preschool is better. Why is it better because your paying more? I am so sick of it. That is one of the main reasons that I do not belong to a "regular" play group because it can drive you friggin insane just to keep up with the dumb one ups that some of these moms do to each other. No boring ass play groups were moms only can talk about what their kids have accomplished one thing that women always said that they would neeeever do once they had kids. I don't want to be around moms like anymore I really don't, I now have zero patience for women like this.
If I had listened to all the BS that was spewed at some of these "playgroups" based on what some mothers said my daughter would be a mess since I did not breast feed until grade school, would be an illiterate dork because I did not spend my whole day reading to her to every second of everyday instead of watching a Pixar video and catching a few episodes of the Real Housewives once and awhile....I look at my daughter and I am doing this parenting thing MY WAY......No books, no 8 hour long how to videos, no outside play group influence, disciplined my way and no BS. And you know what gang so far it is working. She says please, thank you, may I and she pretty much behaves most of the time. She helps me with chores goes to bed when I tell her and so far has not been too sassy. Yes..... she has little asshole days but all kids have those and anyone who says to you their kid is perfect 100 percent of the time is LYING to you because they need to prove something or just want to make you feel like a shitty mother. I run into these types of moms everyday single day. They make being a mother hard work and exhausting and are not worth my time anymore. I feel as women we should support each other in everything that we do I however sometimes feel that some women just like to tear each other down because it makes them feel better about themselves. Now I know why I always got along allot better with guys.
