Because someone, somewhere, thinks that your parenting sucks. Might as well celebrate it.
The following post is dedicated to all the parents who have ever felt guilty about a parenting decision that other parents may have judged or frowned upon. For all of us who have been in that position, deep down you knew that decision was the right one and completely necessary in conquering the quest to [...]
OK, so I know this isn’t really Werner Herzog reading Madeline, the children’s classic from my own childhood, but I think Herzog would readily agree to narrating the tale of an young girls living at a Parisian boarding school because of the series’ classic closing line: ‘That’s all there is; there isn’t any more.’ That [...]
Sesame Street. I was raised on it, I will always love it, and as far as I’m concerned, it can do no wrong. What? Come on now, well made children’s programming never hurt anyone and we all know that moderation and moderation are the keys, yo. Anyway. I’m all grown up now so I prefer [...]
My Little Pony infiltrated our home about a year ago and while the actual pony toys seem innocuous enough, the cartoon version of these predominately pink pintos make me think I’d rather be watching Caillou. For the record, that sentiment means if I’m pining for that whiny bald-headed child, this children’s video offering must be [...]
This video is a proof that you don’t need toys to entertain your baby. All you need is a nose or any other noise-emitting body part and we all have at least two or three of those, right? Face it, bodily functions are hilarious, especially the ones you can do on demand (armpit farts anyone?) [...]
Full disclosure: I watch Toddlers & Tiaras. I watch it like it’s my own personal train wreck happening smack dab in the middle of my living room. Honestly most of the parents on that show make me feel so much better about my own parenting mishaps because nothing I have done in the past five [...]
I dare you to find a cuter video of the story of birth of Christ. First up you are never going to hear cuter accents than these New Zealand children who re-enact the story of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. That boy who plays the Angel Gabriel makes me sigh. Second, the scene where the donkey [...]
The Bad Moms Club would love to give you a gift, a beautiful gift from us to you. Dar Williams Babysitter Song. Oh how I really do wish that the babysitter was here. Enjoy. Dar Williams- The Babysitter’s Here (acoustic) by Sneakattackmedia
Last week was the Police / Rudolph mash-up that resulted in the awesomeness known as Rudolph you don’t need to turn out the red light. This week it’s what would have happened if doctors had ‘fixed’ Rudolph’s ‘disfiguring facial deformity’. Wow, when you put it that way, it doesn’t sound so much as special than [...]
WHY DIDN’T I THINK OF THIS? Oh right, I’m kind of lazy. Parents of little Natalie took pictures of her almost every single day since she was born and made a time-lapse video of her growing up before the camera’s eye (literally) over 10 (!!) years. Watch her posture improve, hair grow, and her little [...]
Because there was never actually any ‘cool’ for me to lose, losing my ‘cool’ since becoming a parent has had little impact on my life. This is not to say that becoming a parent automatically means that you are required to hand in all your cool street cred. In fact I know a whole pile [...]
Trust me, you do not need to understand French to know what is going on in this video shot by a father starring his young daughter. You probably will feel bad for this little girl but you probably also will laugh when you see what the dad gets away with during an seemingly innocent afternoon [...]
Watching the clip embedded below, in which Anderson Cooper ‘interviews’ Texas Rep. Louis Gohmert, is an exercise in frustration. It reminds me of trying to reason with my four-year old, which, at the best of times, can be aneurysm-inducing. But Anderson Cooper demonstrated that he’d make a level-headed parent some day, just based on the [...]
The summer I was pregnant with my son – heavily pregnant, I might add – it was eleventy-thousand degrees every single day, with a trillion per cent humidity. I was gigantic and horribly uncomfortable; it was all I could do to get myself through to two p.m., when I would put my (then two-year-old) daughter [...]
