Summer can be an overwhelming time for moms. You want to enjoy the season with your kids (“You only get 18!!!” the memes love to shout), but it’s not always as easy as social media makes it look. Moms still work, they’re overstimulated, they’re lacking funds for all the vacations and activities — summer can just be tough. And the moms this week are confessing all of their summer woes and frustrations.
Honestly, it doesn’t get much more relatable than this set of confessions. Some moms thrive in summer — they love letting their kids get feral — and some moms are dreading the lack of routine — honestly, same. But above all, the guilt of knowing we’re supposed to be enjoying this — no matter what — is the most relatable of all.
Scary Mommy Confessions are a tried-and-true part of what makes our site so fun. If you want to anonymously confess, look for our weekly callouts on Instagram. And to browse past Confessions, head here.
