A few weeks ago I started a post about competitive parenting and how stupid it is. It sat in my draft file for a bit and then I deleted it. This Mom said so much better what I was trying to get at and expands the topic so much more articulately than I ever could have! I was unable to fully explain why competitive parenting pisses me off so much and this is exactly why. Formula vs Breastfeeding, working vs stay-at-home, and all the other petty shit means nothing compared to not having a family.
