Because someone, somewhere, thinks that your parenting sucks. Might as well celebrate it.
As I mentioned last week, greater than 50% of the Bad Moms Club writers descended upon San Diego for BlogHer. We hugged and we chatted and we hung out. When I saw Katie at the MamaPop writers get-together we for real SQUEED and ran towards each other in slow motion. Or, it just felt that [...]
Last week, People magazine ran a story under the headline, Rachel Zoe ‘Thrilled’ With 10 Carat Push Present. There is so much to say about that statement that I’m not even sure where to begin. Rachel Zoe? 10 Carat? Push Present? After I rubbed my eyes, gave my head a shake and downed a shot of [...]
Subject: Oh , sigh… Karen, I’m sick of mothers who think that their voice is the only one that should be heard or that matters. I chose not to have children and resent that I have to pay for the health, education and care of the kids of mothers who willingly chose to bring them [...]
So a school in Virginia suspended a 6 year old last month. Did he act out? Shove his classmates? Bite someone? Steal lunches unashamedly? No. It was worse. So much worse. This degenerate child, obviously the product of horrible, neglectful, borderline abusive parents, parents who probably watch reality TV so you know they’re horrible, had [...]
There are many ways in which motherhood changes a person. Many of these things are physical, like the squashy belly and the saggy boobs and – heaven forbid – the Mom Hair. It’s a fate we all succumb to, sooner or later. With a toddler nipping at my ankles, I just don’t have time for [...]
The hell? Taylor Momsen is seventeen years old, for chrissakes. SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD. Which is TOO YOUNG FOR SOFT CORE PORN. Seriously, where are her parents? It’s almost laughable. We recoiled in horror when Miley Cyrus did that skeezy Vanity Fair shoot (well, I did), but it’s now, what, a year later? Two years later? [...]
I would say that this borders on child abuse – making children perform like this – but I actually think that the abuse is perpetrated on the listener. Maybe it’s both. In any case, it’s a little bit disturbing (note: NSFC – Not Suitable For Cats). Cute? Or creepy? Bad moms wanna know. source.
I’d like to say that this – a SEXY ELMO COSTUME – is not a sign of imminent Apocalypse, but I fear that I’d be wrong. Horribly, horribly wrong. Source; HT @thatericalper
It’s been insufferably hot this summer. We’ve spent many a day blanketed ‘neath a swath of steamy, smoggy air; on days like that, when simply stepping out the front door causes a full body sweat, movies come in handy. By the time summer was halfway over, my kids and I had watched every movie we [...]
Madonna is a fascinating case in the pantheon of celebrity mothers. You would think that she’d have asserted herself as the Mother Of All Bad Mothers, what with the pointy-bra’ed, Sex book-y, flirtation-with-heresy past and all, but instead she went and became all stiff and British and wrote some saccharine children’s books and bragged about [...]
So, you know how we were just asking whether or not our hair might be killing feminism? Which, you know, is a ridiculous question, because of course hair can’t kill feminism, unless it’s Kate Gosselin’s hair, in which case, it maybe could, but still. Anyway, the question is irrelevant. Hair isn’t going to be the [...]
A video clip of a young Indonesian boy smoking a cigarette is making its way around the internet, and the story behind it is as sad as it is shocking. Ardi Rizal smokes up to 40 cigarettes a day. He smokes one brand and one brand only, and has major meltdowns when his parents try [...]
Obviously, these guys have no idea who Dooce is. (PS: Happy Mother’s Day!) * * * *
So, Cracked – which I read daily because, yes, I have the sensibility of a thirteen year old boy – has a round-up of worst-ever rip-offs of popular childrens’ animated films. It’s pretty awesome. Also, disturbing. but mostly awesome. Among them is a rip-off of Cars that features disturbing, if juvenile, sexual innuendo (headlights! oh, [...]
I know that this is supposed to be, like, funny and all, but seriously, it just makes the hair on the back of my neck stand on end. I mean, yes, these adorable little girls are play-acting and it’s all pretend, but jeebus murphy, I see a similar kind of hair-tossing and voguing among the [...]
