There's something so powerful about being able to post anonymously. Stan Twitter has it all figured out; freely posting your most insane feelings about the person you're obsessed with without anybody knowing who you really are. Tumblr has also got a flawless system. You can ask inane questions to your favorite posters without revealing that you're the one who keeps wondering when they're going to post the next installment of their OC's harrowing adventures. 

Of all the social media platforms, Facebook is the one that is most difficult to be an anonymous no-name on. It demands that you identify yourself with your full name in order to post, and if you're arguing in the comments of a Walmart ad, it's going to be harder to hide it. Luckily, there is now a feature where you can post anonymously in a Facebook group from the comfort of your own account. That's lucky for us because now the Facebook moms can take their masks off even more.

    The brutal part is that in previous posts she says she can't leave her husband with her baby because it's the same as being watched by an 8 year old. Other post history includes complaining about how awful it is with her husband and if she can continue to be with him

    Wondering if a marriage can survive with disagreement on termination... I am unexpectedly pregnant. My husband is livid that I would even consider keeping it. I am a SAHM and already stretched very thin even with lots of help. I am most likely going to terminate for practical reasons. But a part of me cannot help but wonder about keeping it depending on gender. My husband is still sore that I kept a previous pregnancy which he believes to have to altered his career path and diminished his future

Not many know that it's encouraged in other countries to deworm yourself....routinely to. They encourage deworming, yet the US never has. I personally haven't used ivermectin in this particular situation, I agree with your stance to try it 100% and I'm behind it. Parasites are our issue. We've got to fight them; One way

    6:17 60 < Bab Anonymous member • 1h Please no judgement on this one but how would you go about discussing better hygiene with your partner? I feel like since we had our baby my partner has given up completely. He will go 5-7 days without taking a shower or brushing his teeth. He never washes his hands even after I explain how important it is for our baby's health (his solution to this was buying hand sanitizer). He will wear the same clothes over and over again without putting them in the basket

    Anonymous member 13h Does anyone hate CPS the way I do? They started investigation three times on me with no proof; wasted my time and ended the cases with nothing. My child has special needs so he escapes and when I called 911 to help look for him, first time in trouble. Second time someone reported me to CPS for twisting his head while I only wanted to turn his head to say hi to people. Third time I dated a wrong guy who was also sleeping with his ex; the ex called CPS saying I was killing my

    ome Mom Support Group Anonymous member ⚫ 43m⚫ A Х My s/o makes dirty remarks towards our daughter and I tell him it's unnecessary and it needs to stop and he just laughs it off and says it's just a joke. But that's not a joke. His mom has done it too. But he's been making these remarks for a while now. How can I end them? How can I stop him from saying them? What should I do? 41 133 comments Like Comment Send

    Goat milk has almost three times the protein of human milk, which can stress a baby's kidneys and lead to dehydration. Also may hurt digestive system. Although once they turn 1 I think it's ok. I'm not 100% sure though on the last part. Edited to add bc some people lack reading comprehension. It CAN stress out a baby's kidneys. It CAN lead to digestive issues. That does not mean it will. It's important to know potential cons! 4h Like Reply 22 Author Top contributor thank you 3h Like Reply View 5
