Mommy Guilt

By Julie Meekins

Let's face it. Most mamas at some time in the lives of their children will face Mommy Guilt.

3 reasons how Mommy Guilt steals joy in parenting:

It often stems from comparing yourself with others.
It serves no purpose other than to make you feel bad and render you "off your game" as a mom.
It creates the false idea that you should be perfect all the time.

Comparing yourself to another mom is never a good idea. You have NO idea what life is REALLY like for that other mom. What may look good on the outside is just that - on the outside. You cannot truly know the intimate personal struggles of that other mom. No one knows what goes on in their home and family or what stresses with extended family and friends she endures.
