Saw an article about some woman who posted a photo of a mom carrying her kid on her back and pushing another in the stroller. She was being outed for her behavior on Facebook by a store employee who was commenting on her parenting style or the state of America's youth or something.
The post stated
"this is the kind of ignorance that gets passed down to kids and ppl enable their children to be independent. This girl is at least 5, but what u don't see in his picture is the 1 1/2 yr old in the stroller. God people are f*cking Stupid!!!"
The mom pictures in the photo was notified of the helicopter parenting advice on Facebook from somebody who she knew who saw it. I don't even want my kids photographed and posted on Facebook so that would annoy the hell out of me but what would upset me more is that I really have no idea what the post is suppose to say.
Is the woman lazy for carrying the kid, the kid lazy for being carried while the other one is in the stroller or is the entire country just lazy and ignorant because we use carriers and strollers?
I have no clue but I often carry my kids after a long day, one on my shoulders, one in a carrier and the other in the stroller which I would say is the antithesis of lazy

Lionel Messi loses another international tournament final at the Copa America, Cal alumna Alex Morgan and a bunch of other white girls win the Women's World Cup for America, the men's national soccer team destroys Guatemala 4-0, and Jason Pierre-Paul (supposedly) gets in a freak accident with fireworks on the 4th of July, though who knows what he was really doing on Saturday night to get his hand mangled.
But instead of an update on any of the above, we get a story about a suburban mom carrying her kids around the supermarket, and some gossipy housewives sniping about her behind her back.
We need some perspective here, people. Need to re-focus this blog from a suburban housewife shopping blog to one about sports heroes, sports villains, the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat, randy women, and lies in the media.
And porn.
