I found an interesting article on this-here blogosphere about mean mommy bloggers. The article is entitled “Mommy Meanest? The Darkside of mom blogs”.

The article talks about how most parenting circles and social sites (forums, social networks, etc.) usually consist of supportive moms. However, even amongst the most supportive sites — other moms can sometimes be… well… downright cruel.

It seems that in some respect we are missing our manners today. Parenting is the toughest job we’ll ever do. In our ever-technological world we are now subject to what feels like 24 hour surveillance. People catch parents in bad moments and post them on Youtube and such. This usually brings out a mob of opinionaters just ready to strike either for or against. Can you imagine your total parenting life being picked apart by one Youtube clip?

Why is it that we are so quick to judge and be critical? Just some food for thought…
