One for STFUParents! from FB
This
is Sooo True--->There comes a point in life when fun no longer means
clubbing, drinking or being out till 4am, or thinking about yourself!
Fun means Disney movies, family dinners, bedtime stories, long cuddles, a
messy house, sleeping by 10pm and hearing little voices say "I love
you." Becoming a parent doesn't change you, it makes you realize that
the little people that YOU created deserve the very best of your time ?
Repost if you get it. I hope I see this on the wall of every Mom I
know....

I mean, cheezus crust, mommy martyr much?

Re: One for STFUParents! from FB
If it only lasted 15 minutes, do I only repost for 15 minutes?
ugh this makes me mad. Especially since I have a very close friend who is unable to have a child. She loves my daughter as if she was her own. These kinds of status updates lowkey insult everyone who chooses not to have kids, or cant. Its just annoying.
plus, I can have fun drinking at 4am while my daughter is sleeping...lol just kidding...but not really.
and a messy house is never fun. IDK what fucckkin facebook status update says it is.
How many "eye roll" emoticons can I insert here? Cripes. I HATE parents like this.

So THAT's my problem! Is it too late to start?

Maybe I'm an old fart, but this happened for me LOOOOONG before a kid was even in the picture.

Had a dream I was queen.
Woke up. Still queen.
I hate the ones that are like "I'm a STAY-AT-HOME-MOM! I don't get sick days, I'm a maid, chauffeur, chef, doctor, teacher and astronaut blah blah blah"
It always makes me wonder who they think cleans and cooks dinner, etc. in a family where both parents work. I mean, yeah, if you want to say being a SAHM is a lot of work, I'll agree with that but when you're a working parent, you still have to do all that stuff - after you get home from working 40 hours a week.

We miss you and love you always, little firecrackers!
This is Sooo True--->There comes a point in life when fun no longer means clubbing, drinking or being out till 4am, or thinking about yourself! Fun means self righteously posting on Facebook instead of spending time with your kids. Becoming a parent doesn't change you, it finally gives you something to talk about? Repost if you get it. I hope I see this on the wall of every Mom I know... so I don't feel like I'm the only one who has no identity beyond mother
Fixed it for you.
I'm right there with you on this.
I'm 27 and this is no longer fun for me. Bed by 10pm is awesome.
