This Mum's Viral Facebook Post About Parenting in 2016 Resonates With Us All

The author of Toddlers Are A**hole: It’s Not Your Fault, Bunmi Laditan, has taken to Facebook to express the difficulties modern day parents face.

The status, published last Sunday, begins by saying “being a modern parent is terrible.” 

“Do you know what vitamins I had growing up? NONE. DAYLIGHT WAS MY VITAMIN. Occasionally, once a year tops, my mom would get us those chalky Flinstones vitamins that looked liked kidney stones but we’d only have to eat them for a few days before she lost interest in our health.”

Shee goes on to talk about the way she was raised vs. the way we’re currently bringing our children up with the point that nothing is as simple as it used to be.

She ends the post by saying:

“If you need me, I’ll be in front of my computer crying bitter tears and searching for phthalate-free bubble bath. I don’t even know what a phthalate is.”
