I am so sick of boy-mom sh*T

“RUN the boys”

#boymom

Here's why it is so hard to relate to a #BOYMOM versus a mom of boys.

You cannot offer any form of commisseration, identification, sympathy/empathy, or relating to them without them completely dismissing you and trying to diminish you because YOU JUST CAN'T because you're a mother to girls. So you can't know.

So even if your girl is hoarse from shouting, a skinned knee from tree-climbing, covered in dirt and holding up a random animal tooth for inspection, as my oldest girl was today, you just. can't. possibly. because #BOYMOM.

So go ahead, #boymom. I'll stop trying to connect with you or relate to you, or encouraging my kids to play with yours. And then I'll be a snobby, standoffish #girlmom, and you'll continue to be so "unseen."

I have a different perspective from yours, clearly. That doesn't mean I need to "chill out." That means I have a different perspective from yours. Can you handle it?

Boymom, you sound really, really stupid. I think you might have already lost your sanity. Maybe treat your child as a human and not a wildebeest?

This is why "boy moms" no longer hang out with girl moms... our kids are just acting normal and we are called bad moms and our kids are characterized as wildebeasts.

It's no different than girls wearing 1 inch shorts and people say "who is the parent" like seeing a girls leg is some horror.

Boys moms are not raising rapist they just don't give a crap if the boys want to wrestle, burp and make fart jokes. I don't give a sh*t.

No, you're treating your own kids like wildebeests, not anyone else. The more you say they can't learn basic manners, the more you're underestimating their own capacity.

Your false equivalencies are also stupid. I don't care what your children wear or if they play wrestle with each other, as long as they are trying to be considerate of other people.

I have a boy, so please stop thinking that people who disagree with you are "girl moms."

It's true mom's of non-traditional boys have the biggest chip on their shoulder.

You tell yourself "I'm a better mom" to hide behind the fact their H's wish your boys was "more sporty".

Our boys are not your problem, your inability to accept your boys is the problem.

NP who has two girls.

STFU. You have no right to tell another mother that her son isn't "man enough." WTF, do you think this is 1955?

Moms of boys are great. They're not perfect, their kids aren't perfect, but they are great, and their kids are great.

#BOYMOMS suck. And as a result of their narcissism and defensiveness and excusing bad behavior, their kids run wild.

Guess which one you are?

HA! I've said this in other threads, and I'll say it again...there is always, always a correlation between "boymoms" and women who can't seem to tell the difference between the possessive and the plural.

It's not "mom's of boys," it's "moms of boys."

I never said anything about my son or my husband, so your characterizations say more about you than me.

I don't have a chip on my shoulder and try to be empathetic and open-minded to many parenting choices. But I find your ignorance and deeply-rooted misogyny to be intolerable.
