Your baby has reflux
She’s not lazy
She needs the special formula
Since you’re the lazy one:
You’re welcome.
Exactly! Some medication with breast milk or reflux formula would fix this quickly.

5 mins in to MMOL and they are already talking about their ADHD. Does everyone at MM have ADHD or are they just throwing this term around these days? It’s really unhealthy to constantly be referring to it as the reason why you can’t do life.

has it been removed (like most posts on there that don't toe the sycophantic line....)
I couldn't find it
I was interested in the comments in reply

Someone having a go at Mia
Couldn’t have said it better if I tried! I’m so much happier away from gainful employment. Yes, there are some terrifying moments and times when I’ve seriously doubted my choices but going back to an underpaid, sit-down, screen-based, soul-sucking office job would end me. I’m extremely lucky that my partners business provides enough for us both (to be fair I do about 20 hours of "unpaid" support work behind the scenes each week but it’s all on my own timetable).
I’ve lost count of the conversations well meaning girlfriends have begun with me about finding my own satisfying career… that ship sailed long ago friends!

It’s still there
I’ll just add Mia’s response
Pretty decent response I suppose! Let’s see if she addresses it further (in a subscriber exclusive of course)

I think the post is great and I like Mia’s response.

It also smacks of Mia’s elitism that only a well worded carefully noted post that takes care not to attack her and trigger her narcissism stays up.

She doesn’t get a cookie for being polite though in my opinion.

The sycophants with their para social relationships won’t know how to respond to a nuanced and intellectually complex post.

Ffs Mia acknowledge your privilege. For once! You don't save lives, your job isn't life or death, it isn't shift work. Work a day in a tougher field and then talk about how wonderful work is with such disdain for everyone else.
1. You went to Ascham. You automatically have privelege. I don't many people who went there, and this might be a massive assumption, but I'm guessing most people who attend there, don't end up in minimum wage jobs working their asses off just to put food on the table - most have family businesses to fall into, or go to uni, or like you, 'had a dad who knew someone who worked in the same building as Lisa Wilkinson.'
2. You could afford a nanny when your kids were little. Try juggling work with childcare drop off, pick ups, and the hundreds of illnesses they get each year. Childcare battles make work so much tougher.
3. Life is hard for a lot of people atm. A lot of us just need a fckn break. If I didn't have to work, I wouldn't. (Well I would but maybe only 1-2 days a week or casually)
4. Go spend a day in ER, a classroom, cleaning, anything customer service related, washing dishes, in aged care etc basically any field that isn't media.

It’s interesting, I feel like in some ways feminism caused a real backlash against women that aren’t career orientated. I don’t have kids and I no longer yearn to the be boss either, and that’s ok. I do wholeheartedly agree that a man isn’t a financial plan though!!

Also, I feel like half the posts on the MMOL fb group (and Go-To for the matter) are just thinly veiled writing auditions 😏

You’re right in the money here. If I see one more comment about “beautifully written” …

100%.Her family have a PRIVATE PLANE FFS. There’s not anything wrong with being rich but just don’t pretend you’re ‘one of the people’. It’s disingenuous.
