[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It should be discussed heavily before doing so. If you suffer from depression or anxiety, it’s 10xs harder so the expectation should be that you may struggle parent vs the breezy social media posts we see. [/quote] Ironically, most of the "breeze social media posts" were posted by parents with mental health issues. One way to avoid mental health problems as a parent is to not spend time looking at breezy posts about parenting on social media, as they rarely reflect reality and are often posted with the intention of inducing envy or admiration (in order to get you to keep looking and perhaps buy products and services suggested by the poster, who has established themselves as an authority on parenting by making it appear as though they are effortlessly good at it through a highly curated and often staged social media profile).[/quote]
