The post we’re judging today is:
On Mother’s Day and every day: Scary mommies are no joke
Go ahead and read it. We can wait.
Now, we here at Judgy McJudgerpants feel that the author, Michele Weldon, had some good points. After all, there’s a lot of content out there in the blogosphere that is really shitty toward kids and the demands they put on parents, and, like the author, we wonder what message that sends. Unfortunately, comparing humor bloggers like Jill Smokler and Nicole Knepper to Mommy Dearest, putting them in the same camp as the “Courtney Love/Britney Spears brand of alcohol-soaked anything,” and implying that their kids will someday be arrested for underage drinking “and worse,” sent her careening away from her apparent point and straight into judgy territory.
What do you think? Do you agree, or are we judging too harshly?
