Mom Confessions
your goldfish didn’t die of “natural causes” like I told you. I forgot to feed them.
I like my mother in law more than I like my mother
I fantasize about checking into a hotel ALONE for a weekend…staying in bed the entire time…watching bad movies and ordering room service.
These are all confessions from mothers. Old, young, working outside of the home, stay at home, first time moms and mothers of many children.
Can you relate? I can relate to the stresses, the humor and the frustration of it all. It is a hard job with no training beforehand.
These confessions are from a site that I stumbled across a few days ago and have been hooked on ever since.
Everyone has secrets, do mothers have more secrets that anyone else?
I don’t know. What I do know is that mothers like to judge other mothers, to make themselves feel better about the job they are doing.
We all struggle, we all fail sometimes but maybe if we stopped judging and started sharing our own parenting secrets with other mothers, we could change the world.
I thought it would be fun if we did our own True Mom Confessions here. Leave your confession in the comments and feel free to remain anonymous. I will start with one and then leave another anonymous one in the comments.
-Sometimes I go into the bathroom and close the door just to get some peace and quiet. It doesn’t last long though, because in minutes kids and a cat will end up in the bathroom with me.

I eat my kids’ Halloween/Christmas/Easter candy (not ALL of it, of course) and justify it by saying that they’re better off not having all that sugar.

I let my son take a bath in our whirlpool tub so I can have time to blog in peace.

Some days all I want is my kids to go to bed, but then about 30 minutes after they are sleeping I feel quilty and want to play with them again.

I know I don’t play with my kids enough.

So, is it OK for me to participate since I’m a dad and not a mom?
Some mornings when my wife takes the kids to school and before I go to work, I go into their rooms and throw away any broken toys. They’ve never asked “Where’s my so-and-so?”

I am a single mother. I am tired. I dont have enough time for my son. I certainly don not “play” with my son enough. Hell, I don’t play at all. I worry. I worry that I cant give my son what he needs or what other kids are getting for benefitting from a WHOLE family. He is 10 years old and I still watch him sleep at night.

Some days I think I hate my children.

Sometimes I’ll tell my daughter her friends are sick so I don’t have to go have the playdate. I really dislike this mother.
