Insta-moms need to be stopped.

You know what I'm talking about: the illusion of perfection.

​

I know an instamom personally. She films little clips here and there of her and her child having the most seemingly wonderful time. Tries to tie it into her business marketing and capitalize off of it, which is cringe in and of itself.

​

Behind the curtains though is a very different story. A person who is so worried about perception, it's impossible really to get close to them or have a real conversation.

​

A person who is actually exhausted by their child, and pawns them off on a babysitter or other family as much as possible.

​

A person who has created a bully in their own child, because they never corrected his behavior. Which is unfair to the child.

​

And even to family, she will never admit anything short of perfection. Even though we all have eyes.

​

I've known her for years and I still don't feel like I know her at all. Everything is so artificial and superficial.

​

And someone out there is probably watching those videos wondering why their life isn't so perfect
