On today’s episode of why Mia’s followers make me lose the will to live:
View attachment 284611View attachment 284612I truly don’t understand this “As long as they eat something and are healthy who cares” well the first and most important thing in being healthy is to have a proper diet. Yeah giving unhealthy things every so often isn’t going to kill them, but giving puffs every meal most definitely won’t keep them healthy and does put them at risk. I wouldn’t be the slightest bit surprised if Mabel had a iron or vitamin D deficiency. I’m genuinely not a health freak, but I’m also not going to give my son a chocolate bar for tea because he’s happy and not dying so it’s fine to do whatever’s easiest for me right
1. it’s not heartbreaking that she has to explain her meals because she’s only doing it because inside she feels guilty that she gives the bare minimum but is too selfish or lazy to do anything about it and is just trying to convince herself that it’s not that bad.
2. NO it is NOT people who aren’t mothers shaming you, god do youtubers love to use that one
it doesn’t even matter, everyone with a brain knows 600 berries with burnt toast every morning isn’t normal nor a balanced diet.
3. I’m not calling out the commenter with an autistic daughter, I don’t know enough about the situation to say anything because I’ve looked after autistic children and I understand how difficult change is for them.. but that’s not Mias case in the slightest imo.
4. “there are worse things in this world than what we feed our children” cool, you’re right, let’s just feed our kids sweets every meal because there are worse things! “If they’re healthy we know what they need” but that’s the exact f’ing point.. in what world is eating puffs all day every day healthy? Just because it isn’t visibly obvious, it doesn’t mean your child is not healthy. Not going outside of one room for days and being ignored by your mother is not healthy!! Just because Mabel looks fine it does not mean you can be lazy and feed her whatever you can grab within 3 seconds!!
idk why I’m so mad but it just doesn’t sit right with me how she openly admits to feeding her puffs constantly, and other mums will just be like “YeAh WeLl she’s alive soo you’re the best mum ever!!1!”
by all means make your kid happy. But it’s not that f’king hard to give them a suitable diet at the same time. Feeding your child so that they grow strong and healthy is literally the most important part of being a mum imo. She’s done this since Mabel was like 7 months old (she tried for like a month maybe?), it’s not a case of Mabel being difficult and Mia just “trying her best”
rant over lol sorry
