Omg the number of moms I see who post pictures of their daughters’ social events, boyfriends, etc etc blows my mind. They are nutso.

Omg the number of people posting a picture of what they are eating for dinner blows my mind.

In other words, I don’t see how posting pictures of your kids and friends is any worse, or offensive, or “nutso” than the tons of other stuff people post.

Call me crazy, but I don't think a slice of pizza is having its privacy violated when you post a picture of it.

Ha, gotta love the posters who see nothing wrong with posting all about their kids’ and their own social lives on social media. I am understanding now that they really don’t know that other people think they are sad little insecure people. And that they probably think that those of us who don’t post don’t have social lives. 😂

Maybe they have their permission. You don’t know, so why the snark? I’m not on social media, but if you are- you should stop taking what others post personally or get off.

It doesn’t matter if you have their permission. Why do you need to share about your private social plans with people who weren’t there?? Why can’t you just share with the people who were there, the ones you cared to include?

I don’t and I don’t care if others do or don’t. Their intention is to share pictures of themselves/kids having a good time. If you are bothered by seeing that, move along.

You say you don't care but seem really intent on defending this unnecessary practice that does affect other people. No matter how many times you tell them to look away. What's it to you if people want to vent about it? If you're not actively doing it they're not talking about you.

It’s a delusion. There is no “mom clique.” So what exactly does OP “hate”? That sometimes people get together without her? Grow up

Why do you care if people like OP think the over sharers are jerks?

Are all of the playdates you host for all of the girls in the class? If not, why not? Surely there are other girls who feel excluded that these “4 or 5 girls” are getting together without them.

I am asking these pointed questions bc OP seems like the kind of person who is fine with cliques as long as she is on the inside, but decries them when she is not.

Not meaning to be cliquey but some Moms and kids I just like more. Also, it depends on how we are tied. All my DD's fiends and Mom's are all barn and softball Moms and half go to the same school. The public school kids who are also barn and softball really do not hang out much with the ones at our school because there are less commonalities and we have not known them as long. We all started in a neighborhood expecting Mom's group and then storytime and Strollefit and then we decided to all send our kids to the same school and go to the barn for riding and the field for softball. It is also easy as we are on the same schedule so we sometimes go on a cruise or camping with each other as well. We just all click and our kids love each other. I have no family except for a Dad who is not in the US, so they are like my family. But, sometimes I feel that the other Mom's or classmates feel excluded. But, we all fit so well we do not want anyone else in our group. It is not mean, we just like it the way we are.

New poster. I enjoy seeing other people and their children having fun. It doesn’t matter that I wasn’t there. It brings me joy and I feel like a part of their life when they share parts of their life.

My kids all hang out multiple times per week. I don’t post their hangouts. I usually post milestones, travel or holiday photos like Xmas and Halloween. I don’t get triggered when others post pictures.

I don't post pictures of other people's kids, so that solves the problem of jealous people like OP.

Maybe but my kid is having a good experience because it's easier for the kids not to care. Everyone is not cooped up in one classroom and seeing everyone at recess etc. Also, larger friend circles where kids start getting interested in different activities such as music, sports, theatre, etc with different kids in each.

+1

We don't post ours because 1.) moms are nosy and 2.) some extreme moms make a sport out of their daughters social lives 3.) this can include but is not limited to micromanaging and inserting oneself where one does not belong and 4.) this can also include calculating and ousting your daughter in favor of their daughter being included in a group.

So, while it is possible, I don't think that is what is happening here, OP. Do your own thing - let your daughter tell YOU who she wants to hang out with. Take her lead. When she gets older, the offensive moms get worse.
