My ideal Mother’s Day gift would be for every man to understand what it is to be a mother. To live in constant fear of losing you. To live in constant fear that you will be hurt or someone will hurt you. I’d love for the world to stop smoking around children, move out of seats for pregnant women and understand what it is like to live on only a few hours of sleep and stay trapped indoors breastfeeding a newborn all day and all night. (I’d also love for everyone to understand that I lost most of my mind because I have to do everything one-handed while I nourish a human and a confirm button would be greatly appreciated).
I’d love for my son to grow up knowing that mommy didn’t always have those stretch marks, but that they aren’t ugly because they were made out of love. I’d love for my son to respect all women no matter what their size and know that mommy didn’t always have that little paunch, but that he once lived inside and I sang to him and felt him kick and punch. -Due Again This Fall

You’re gonna be one of those crazy soccer moms that tries to sue a school when her kid gets hit in the face with a baseketball. Moms in other parts of the world have to worry about having acid thrown in their face or having their breats cut off or other really really REALLY nasty shit. We ain’t perfect around here and we got work to do but we’re still doin pretty good i think and your son’s gonna grow up in a better place than you think.
Seriously?
Fathers don’t understand what it means to be in constant fear of losing their child?
They don’t live in constant fear that someone will hurt them?
Don’t be that girl.
Holy fuck, you’re a nightmare of a mother!!!!
I live in constant fear of losing my pussy.
Dear Baby-Momma, ya ain’t the first to spawn a child and ya ain’t gonna be the last. You are the one hurting your child with all your neurosis.
Seek help or sell the baby!
And I’ll bet you’d breastfeed your son until he was twelve, if you could.
Lady, you are riding on a fucking cloud and you know how much stability a cloud has.
Children do best when they aren’t overprotected, when issues are demystified instead of ignored or exaggerated, when they don’t have a parent breathing down their necks or become a reason for the parent’s existence.
I’m sorry that you’re having a second. You haven’t got a fucking clue.
Know that my stretch marks were made out of love too. Love of pizza minis and fried chicken.
Food baby.
I thank the gods I have a penis and not a lot of estrogen…
I now know what the true definition of the word insipid is.
Shut the fuck up. You don’t know shit about shit, so shut the fuck up. -a father
PPD much?

TROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Sooo dads don’t love their kids as much as moms? You want a medal for givin birth?
Stupidest bitch ever, an I’m a mom… I just don’t expect praise for it.
Time for the OB to live life rather than think of paranoid fear.
Oh get off the cross.
Hey guys why don’t we tone down the snark a bit. Long story short, it doesn’t hurt to give your mom a call and tell her you love her right? And not just on mother’s day. Tell your dad too but you might only get less than a minute to until he passes you over to moms
Oh hay! *another* sanctimommy!
WONDERFUL!
Take no offense to the comments OP, a lot of the regulars on here have mommy issues
Actually we have problems with people who try to put themselves on a cross. We all go through things. It’s life.
I was so touched by this post, and the guilt was overwhelming, my only course of action was to surgically remove my pee pee, anyone want to buy a used cock size extra small?
Bazzer, I’m so guilt-ridden for being born a cis-male that I’ve joined the FreeBleed Movement.
“Down with Prep H! Tucks Pads are soothing, cooling medicated shackles of Patriarchy!”
Ivan, I was on buzzfeed and they had this article on ‘cringe-worthy’ twitter posts… and this one guy hash-tagged #benefitsofmebeingyourboyfriend or something and he posted “during your period, I’ll wear a pad, too, so we can go through it together” or some such crap.
And I also went to high school with a guy who said he uses tampons when he has diarrhea.
*shudder*
LOL – that’s some Ryan Gosling sounding shit right there.

“Hey Girl, pass the always with wings so we can do this thing together.”
Hey, Tim. I guess we’ll see who puts themselves on a cross the next time your police union contract negotiations start. I know, I know, ya’ll get binding arbitration. The comment was purely for humor.
I have never been nor will ever belong to any union.
“And I also went to high school with a guy who said he uses tampons when he has diarrhea.”
yeesh…
I was gonna make a stupid ‘austin powers, dad issue’ comment until I came across that gem.
Does he soak it in vodka first?
butt-chugging FTW!
