Quitting Social Media Made Me Feel Better About My Parenting
Social media used to be fun until it started having an adverse effect on my self-esteem. I decided to Marie Kondo that toxicness right out of my life and it completely changed the way I live and parent.
One day I was scrolling through my social media feed when I suddenly found myself feeling sour. I pinpointed the shift in my mood to a picture of someone's "Pinterest perfect" life. You know the one. The parent that posts the perfectly curated photos of herself dressed to the hilt doing adventurous things with her adorable kids because she's not a regular mom, she's a fun mom. She writes gushing tributes to her doting spouse. You see her and think she really has it together and it makes you feel inferior.
