The truth is that parenting is sloppy, chaotic and completely ugly at times and despite the words of others who are always there when you need good criticism, this holds true for all.
We are all just trying to figure this mess out while minimizing the psychological damage we cause our children along the way. And between the in-store humiliation, the back seat screaming and the constant fear of failure, parenting can be a beautiful thing as well.
As an advocate of truth and self-awareness, I want to be perfectly clear on something. Parenting is not what you see on facebook, with all kids smiling at the camera, perfectly groomed while mommy and daddy look lovingly into each other's eyes while petting the family dog. This is what they want you to think parenting is like for them. You don't see the other takes with screeching, biting, sticky faces and dirty clothes, and don't even get me started on the kids...
To honor all of you parents who are doing the best you can but are constantly made out to be a failure by those less honest, I've compiled this this for you. Enjoy.
