Everybody thinks they're a perfect parent until they have kids. There is such a culture around criticizing parents and the way they choose to raise their kids that is so amplified by the internet. Parents with more resources loudly shame parents living in poverty for not feeding their kids enough organic healthy food. Adults who were constantly screamed at growing up look down on parents demonstrating how to discipline children without being needlessly aggressive and cruel. Everybody's a critic, and more than that, everybody jumps to the wildest conclusions when they see something they don't like.

This past week, a teen mom went viral for posting a video of her making dinner for her two toddlers. Having two kids at 19 years old is already a difficult cross to bear without weird people on the internet jumping down her throat. Someone accused her of child ab*se because she fed her kids "unhealthy food," and the internet jumped to her defense.
