Real Mums offers a real alternative to mainstream parenting websites, magazines and all the experts telling you what to do and how to parent.
Aside from the fact that we actually consider real life when it comes to parenting information, support and advice, you are also treated to a humorous and satirical look at parenting – we like to call it “reality parenting”.
It’s wear public tantrums happen, you do go to work with yogurt smeared on the crutch of your good, black pants and there are few – if any –signs of that magical pixie parenting land, where everyone is happy all the time, mothering is the “best job in the world” and children will sleep if only you do what the experts tell you.
“Which expert” is anyone’s guess, and they all seem to thrive on guilt-tripping you in order to buy their book. And if you don’t, you are damned to a lifetime of emotionally and psychologically damaged children.
Unlike many parenting experts, the mother Nazis and Mumfia, we believe that Mums are people too. Therefore, we provide you with myriad articles that you can completely relate to and appreciate, products that will help you get through the day, and a heap of resources that will provide you with parenting information and advice … all created for real mums, by Real Mums.
You also have access to our online community, the Bad Mother’s Club; where you may partake in a little retell therapy, rant, rave and rebel against all the parenting information bombarding you, make some sane (or insane as the case may be) friends, receive support and laugh at the expense of others.
You may learn a thing or two, stress less, relieve yourself of guilt. If nothing else, you’ll be overcome with a sense of adequacy and normality and may even find yourself having a bit of a laugh.
If you’ve found yourself yelling at the kids, misplacing your handbag, toddler or mind, having a crying jag or feeling like the worst mother in the world at any time since embarking on this mothering journey, then welcome home … you are a Real Mum!
