Fun times.
This is what happens when the company stops making the extensions for your recently bought baby gate: you improvise!
So, I’ve been contemplating this whole confessions of a mad mumblr thing today. I feel like we should take some kind of reaction as a group, but not in a “everyone attack them because they’re attacking everyone else” kind of way.
I thought at first that we should start a thread of “don’t mention…
in my opinion.. if any mumblr is getting offended over being called out on their own stupidity of dramatizing the mumblr world, lying, and/or just acting like they know how to raise everyone’s kids.. then they should expect to be called out on it. Although, I do think the whole thing is pretty childish.. I also think that the mumblr in question should take her title as douche and run with it. because most of the one’s that are being talked about.. def earned the title. so why not embrace it?
but in all seriousness.. if you treat people like poop.. expect to be treated as such. I do think the site should do away with the posting of people’s URL’s.. (not like it makes much of a difference. if you pissed someone off to the point of them posting about you.. even anonymously . everyone is going to know who it”s talking about anyway.) but other than that.. grow some balls ladies. if you dish out drama. sadly, you should be expecting it back.
I guess my point wasn’t to promote more negativity, but to put out a push of positivity, or at least disassociation with the negativity. My problem with the blog is that it’s just a big ring of bullies. I have no problem being a bitch to someone’s face, I’ve done it before, but doing it anonymously is shitty, at least in an ask box you have the opportunity to filter it first. A bunch of people ragging on a bunch of other people, mumblrs or not, is super duper shitty.
I am not necessarily even saying that the confession site itself is the problem, or the person who set it up, but rather the negativity going into it. What’s why I thought the positive push would be something that all of us could band together to do instead of ripping eachother apart.
You know me, I don’t claim to be a mumblr (nor do I wish to be referred to as such), I’m a mom who tumbls, but something about it this whole thing just rubbed me wrong. And as far as I know I haven’t been mentioned on there yet, but I’m sure that it will happen. Lord knows I’m not a PC person, but I try not to just randomly blast people.
I completely agree. But as the admin stated.. it’s a confessions blog to confess whatever. It would be awesome if the mumblr community in general were more positive instead of being douche bags to everyone who doesn’t have their same views.. but this is tumblr.. and that doesn’t happen.
I’m pretty sure the way people think on this site.. is “Does it offend me? RANT ANONYMOUSLY SO NO ONE KNOWS THAT I’M THE DOUCHE NUGGET. MUHAHA.” Which is sad.. bc there are a TON of mumblrs (or mom’s that blog) that are amazing mothers. Yes, they have their flaws.. but they are doing their best. They know as well as all the others that they aren’t perfect and they aren’t going to call people out on their parenting skills bc THEY KNOW they aren’t perfect. Just like you, the love-cats, me, cravingsolace.. we all know that. That’s why our blogs are free of the drama and we don’t associate with it. It’s gotten to the point though now.. that these awesome mommies are being muted on THEIR OWN BLOG because they feel like they will cause a shit storm if they even mention having a different parenting style than these other douchers.
That’s why I’m glad sites like this confession one pop up. I want mom’s that blog to not be afraid to say how they got frustrated and walked away from their baby. How they raised their voice bc they completely lost it but felt terrible about it afterwards. How they didn’t feel a connection with their infant at first but now they do (or may not still). That’s what I want to read. Not some.. “OMG. SHE CIRCUMSIZED HER SON. SHE SHOULD BE STONED.” But REAL problems.. moms/parents in general feel everyday. It’s a learning curve.. and every child is different. And I feel like EVERYONE has the right to say how they feel. Hence this site.. would be a first step.
Only problem.. is people who started the drama .. don’t have the balls to accept it. And the people who call them out on it.. are being douches with how they say it. (condescending). It needs to be constructive. Not violent among way too many other things.
