It’s nearly 2020. If people can’t comprehend that not all Is as it’s appears on social media maybe they shouldn’t use it. People rarely post the tough moments. I highly doubt she’s going to look on here and think oh duck Sandra who’s only left her kid for 3.5 seconds in the space of 56 months is right I shouldn’t be living my life the way I want. These are her moments, if she needs more breaks than others cool. If she has a support system to continue her previous lifestyle cool. Good mums aren’t just the ones who don’t want to leave their kids.
Do you not think that is a slightly naive or blinkered way to see it? Yeah it is nearly 2020 and we should be wiser to crap like this but the truth is a lot of people aren't.
Of course some people find it easy to understand that the perfect lives they see on social media probably aren't really that perfect. Being a member of tattle means that you likely realised this a while ago!
But even reading a few threads on here, you encounter people who have gone into debt trying to keep up with what they saw on Instagram. And the countless research papers out there into links between maternal mental health problems and social media suggests that there are a lot of people unable to spot the difference between insta and reality.
So it is all well and good to say "don't follow her if you don't like it" or "don't use social media if you can't tell that it isn't real" but I think that's quite a lazy argument
