Crazed Mommy Bloggers
Moms are nuts to begin with. We all have supernatural children with extraordinary powers – Oh come on, you do too!
But there are a group of Mommy Bloggers who are crazed far more then the rest of those of us who have joined Motherhood – those are the Mommy Bloggers who blog about “Parenting” 10 times a day.
Yup, they are such super parents that they are able to handle at least 10 issues with their children then turn around an blog about those issues every day! If they stepped away from their laptops for 10 minutes maybe they wouldn’t have so much to write about – but that point is completely lost on them.
Once upon a time I was on a forum where a woman was constantly quoting from the vast amount of child development books that she had read. She was an absolute fountain of reasoning as to why her children had so many issues.
Finally one day I couldn’t take it any long and I posted “You know, if you put down the book and got down on the floor with your twin 3 year olds, maybe they won‘t have so may problems”
The woman was reading 4 books a week – FOUR BOOKS! And when she wasn’t reading, she was online telling all of us what she had read and how it applied to her sons – when was she actually spending time with her children?
Yet, another forum I’ve been banned from!
And tonight I started another riot.
I was on Triberr and made a comment about Mommy Bloggers who blog about “Parenting” 12 times a day clogging up the twitter stream. Out of the wood work came moms justifying their reasoning for avoiding their children. “My kids are in school for 8 hours” Ok, but when they are home they cause enough trouble to produce 12 posts EACH AND EVERY DAY?!?! What Kind of Parent Are You? And to justify it? WOW!
Ok, your kids have problems, all kids have problems, but if you can write 12 blog posts every day about the amount of problems your kids have – blogging isn’t where you should be spending your 8 hours of free time when your kids are in school. PARENTING CLASSES would be my suggestion.

I avoid those blogs like the plague! I so detest the mother’s that post every single move their kid makes. Or complain about what the child is doing and she can’t understand why or what to do. Maybe because I’m out of the phase. Been there done that. Glad you spoke out. Some times these women need a wake up call.
LOL I know, me too. Sadly there were moms all over Triberr tonight bragging about it.
Why do you care that I post 12 times a day and ignore my kids? Yes, I ignore my kids – are you happy!
So a mommy blogger is complaining about mommy bloggers much about their mommying while with your awesome mommying time to do all that blogging?
Is there really a cares about stupid kids and great deals on mustard? If that is indeed the case, then you should complain about any of them.
Unless your kids are will be fine someone over them time. If “blogging” is someone’s job, then it’s a job. If kids aren’t cancer or writing sonnets better than anyone else.
LOL! But, I’m curious now! Email me an example privately so that I can see what you’re talking about! I know I do have those days when I just would rather be on the computer, than dealing with my kids. It’s my little escape every now and then. But, I try to stay active with the kids, too. A little of this, a little of that . . .
I just woke my son up from laughing so hard and my husband is giving me the stink eye….OMGoodness you are SO freaking funny, yet oh so wise. You make Valid Points eDee.
By the way…nice picture of the mom reading her book………BWaah ha ha ha !

alright!! wTH DID U DO? for some reason someone was so compelled about your blantent honesty she has to make sure I ran over she check out your horribly awful post about Mommy bloggers.
Quite honestly I missed all the dang drama playing with my children for the last 7 hours, cleaning out a garage, chasing them around the yard, playing on the swingset, riding bikes, carving 3 pumpkins and making salted pumpkin seeds . OH Shot during all that fun I forgot to give them a bath.
ps How’s your traffic doing? I’m sure your getting tons of it blogging about mommy bloggers who post 12 times a day about their children. HOW IN THE HELL….. I’m lucky if I have time to get 2 out show a link damn it. If your going to be a good blogger u need a link so we can atleast see who in the world ur talking about. Don’t link directly to the blog cause u certainly don’t want to send her juice but.. just give the url with the www. haven’t I taught u anything LMAO
check u on the book
I’M LOVING IT!! My blog is so busy! I’m telling you, 2 or 3 more of these and I’ll have some GREAT PR and I’ll be able to sell!!
This maybe the Fastest I’ve ever upped my PR! lol (well other than the Craigs List thing, but I just got lucky that Google updated within 3 days of starting that blog.)
Actually it all start as a joke and you know how “Hormonal Types” are! People thought it applied to them and they got all paranoid. Then they started bashing me because they thought I was talking about them!
It’s been Great! I’ve never been this busy so early on.
Hugs!
(PS I saw on FB the kids had to go to the DR – everything ok?)
I am a Mommy Blogger, as are you, I do not have time to write 12 posts about ANYTHING on ANYDAY!!
Thank you for the traffic!!
You are awesome! Lol! I do wonder about those moms as well. Where do they find the time? I can only blog late into the night when my kids are in bed. It’s sleep or the blog, I guess. 🙂 So glad we’re in a tribe together!
Me Too – the blogging thing and the Tribe Together thing! lol
im an anti-mommy blogger and i cant come up with anything to post about 12 times a day.
and like some other commenters i blog at night after the kid is asleep.
i am like no i dont need to know your kid jsut had a dirty diaper and there was a toy car in it! and then 15 minutes later he fell on his face.

Just to give you an example of what some woman will do to create drama where there isn’t any, or in this case keep it going – this woman left a comment on my blog, then posted this on Twitter accusing me of editing her comment: “I know it’s unethical for @messagebubble to REWRITE my comment & attribute to me. FRAUD!”
Internet bullying – just what I need – eye roll. I try to extinguish the flame, which I know is stupid, but being the bigger person and all, but this is on twitter so there are only so many letters allowed: “lying about the comment you left just to keep this going is childish. Move on.”
Then I blocked her – I block her to let her burn herself out. If she spins enough she’ll extinguish and move on to someone else.
You are so my therapist today! I feel liberated. I love your line on being banned by yet another forum! Don’t tell the Mommyologist but I think I might have peed on that one!
I’m lucky if I get a chance to post once or twice per week. Like pp, I also have to choose blog, read or sleep. My kids rule the daytime hours.
Play nice children. Or I’ll have to blog about it.
Don’t base a relationship on sex. You need love, compassion and caring. Then sex can be a reflection of that.

I saw the Triberr feed – I don’t know what those girls were on, but they need to read what you wrote.
If you didn’t step in they would have taken it out on that other girl. I know you, you stepped in to save her butt.
They always find you, Always. How do you attract the weirdos.
I saw the Trib thing – what a bunch of nuts.
They are STILL bashing you on twitter. Keep your head up, it will die out soon.
Keep it up doll.
@Sammy
OMB – you are so right! What is it that old woman used to say about me – I could draw the bugs out of the woodwork without trying – do you think that’s what she meant!!?!?!?
I <3 that you are using OMB, I laughed so hard that I started my napper… PS would a spammer not check "confirm you are NOT a spammer?"
I was in that thread too and they all turned into a bunch of nuts. All that screaming about “this is my job”. None of them are making money and most are pimping coupons (which btw is not an income so is not a job. Try paying the electric bill with your Febreze coupons). I don’t get along with a lot of mommy bloggers (although I am kind of one/freelance writer) because I have no problem calling them out on their bullshit.
Nice post, btw.
Blogging is great source of time pass and to share thoughts for a lady. Keep going.
I saw the Triberr feed – I don’t know what those girls were on, but they need to read what you wrote. I read article and like this one
Love how the Dr Seuss illo applies so well to all this, including some of the angry commenters. The whole thing is just hilarious.
That pic is absolutely true!
