I’m definitely not mum of the year. My child has too many McDonalds and spends too much time watching tv. Partly this is due to my ill health, partly and sometimes laziness. I also do some activities which are just for me.I totally get the dislike for BM2. But reading some people’s comments on it’s like “litcherally” every other person is parent of the year on this thread. Everyday with their kids they bake, do arts, go on beach walks, cook delicious meals from scratch and don’t step within twenty feet of a mobile device. Right now my seven year old is downstairs watching Netflix eating a frozen pizza which I slaved over to heat in an oven, I’m living my best life upstairs, under the duvet, eating popcorn and watching you tube. Is this a one off?! To quote Chris Ingram “no, hell no” do I feel bad?! yes a little but I take my sanity breaks when I can, inset days I love you! I do work 40 hours a week and shock horror I do stuff that’s just for me like go to the gym and grab a cheeky Starbucks when I say I’m at Asda doing a shop. Sorry people, I don’t find BM relatable and I don’t find a lot of comments on here relatable either. BUT, I know I can share my feelings here, you certainly can’t on an influencer thread without being called a hater
But I am feeling smug AF because I’ve been to Copenhagen with my family and I saw so many interesting things and did things which were unique to the country and so it’s nice to know that even a chubby mum aged 40 like me who isn’t an Instamum can actually do some holidays really well.
