I read about 4 paragraphs of an article written by Jennifer Durby who seems like a psycho because she went on about how a childless person cannot judge a parent "Like. Ever." BTW she seems like a terrible snobbish parent that thinks her "angels" are above judgement according to rest of the BS schizo article she wrote that I skimmed through haha

I started reading an ‘article’ about the menopause and it said ‘most people with vaginas’. No. We are WOMEN. MOST WOMEN. I’m sick of this dangerous ideology that is slowly eradicating women from existence.

I ended up at this website after doing a search about covid vaccines and it is complete garbage. Nothing but liberal crap everywhere.

I commented on a post they shared about a celebrity still breastfeeding her five year old daughter and was quoted saying she doesn’t even produce breast milk anymore but she isn’t going to tell her five year old daughter that she can’t nurse on breasts anymore. I stated that this is an example of why our children are growing up with a sense of entitlement because parents don’t know when to draw the line and say enough. Well, that backfired! I got berated and lectured for that- how great and beneficial breast feeding is, how child should be nursed up until age 7 according to the WHO, that’s if it’s comforts her, then she should do it. That how dare I suggest that there isn’t a benefits in nutritional value in nursing a five year old….how dare I comment and say anything insinuating that a five year old shouldn’t and doesn’t need to be nursed. How dare I not clap my hands for this celebrity and send her love and support and how dare I give my opinion, I should keep my comments to myself, that it is none of my business to comment. Well, Scary Mommy, you are a global/public page and this celebrity, gave a public interview and you posted it. So guess what, I can give my opinion. I, personally don’t feel children who are school aged should be nursing. I think nature, didn’t intend for that age group to still be nursing or they wouldn’t have teeth and be able to feed themselves or walk or talk. Ok fine, that’s MY opinion. And I stated that. I also don’t think that comforting your five year old with your breasts by having her use them as a pacifier (because let’s remember, she stated she isn’t producing milk anymore) is something I would encourage a five year old either. I think by this age, we can comfort our five years olds many other ways that are useful, I also feel that when a parent lets a child do whatever they want, that does develop entitlement traits, but again, that is my opinion. Well I got blasted for that opinion and was blocked from ever commenting on the Scary Mommy page again. I never sworn, I never called anyone a name, I simply stated I didn’t think a five year old needed that to provide physical health benefits nor mental health benefits. I asked for proof that it would benefit a five year old. I have no issue with someone disagreeing or even wanting to inform me more on the issue, but that wasn’t what other commenters wanted to do… So that being said, I think this page is a joke and I say that because I feel after my experience, this page is for a select few who have the same belief and opinions. They say “I shall not preach the benefits of breastfeeding or circumcision or home schooling or organic food or co-sleeping or crying it out to a fellow mother who has not asked my opinion. It’s none of my damn business” but yet a good 10 woman on the page berated me for having an opinion that I didn’t feel a five year old benefited from what the article stated and decided to preach breastfeeding into childhood. Now I do not know everything about a child and perhaps my opinion claimed I did, as I was trying to reply/defend myself from the mommy attackers, and the page does also state “ I shall never claim to know everything about any child but my own. (Who still remain a mystery to me.” So perhaps my opinion fell under this category…. Who knows. It would have been nice to have an idea instead of just being banded from ever sharing or commenting again. I will say, they have 152 moderators just from the US, who clearly will take advantage to block anyone they want who doesn’t agree or share the same ideology as they do. They also have 1 moderator from approximately 5 other countries. That being said- i have worked with children and families for almost 20 years now and I know work with 4 and 5 year olds. I breastfed one of my four children. I didn’t breastfed all of them. I am not an anti breastfeeding mom nor am I a pro breastfeeding mom….but I do think nature can teach us a think or two. I do have opinions on raising children and what I feel is best…. But I am also open to others points of view and I feel that is how we learn and survive in this world. My children are ALL healthy, my oldest is 22 my youngest is 7, again, ALL healthy, no asthma, none are overweight, none are under weight their immune system are all normal…. so perhaps you don’t agree with my opinion on the whole breastfeeding a five year and beyond, that’s fine. But if you are going to post something like that- I think you should embrace and support all mothers opinions! My conclusion is that this page, aka known as a blog, is a biased one to say the least. The only “Scary Mommy”, is the one who can’t understand that we all have different views and opinions.

What a joke of a page. If you don't share a common opinion with everyone else commenting, you're blocked from the page. It doesn't matter how cordial and polite you are in your responses. I had several people make very rude remarks to me, and while I never participated in any name calling, I was blocked. If you hold Republican viewpoints, don't bother commenting because you'll be berated by everyone else and then be banned from commenting.

The head editor for this page put out an article that basically said if you vote for someone that is not within her circle that you're a bad person. I strongly beg to differ.. I am a Christian, I volunteer at a local homeless shelter, and food bank. I donate to veterans causes and individuals who are down on their luck. How you vote has no bearing on who you are as a person. If you're a bad person, much like this editor you're simply a bad person. It doesn't know political or socioeconomic boundaries.

Liberal page with liberal ideologies. They bring politics into almost every post, even going as far to encourage the current looting going on of innocent business owners that had nothing to do with these terrible current events that have occurred. Disgusting. A mommy website that promotes violence? That’s awesome, scary mommy 🙄 I’m going to continue to report you.

I truly liked their content in their first couple of years. But as time went on it became more political and always leaning to one side. I honestly was on there for just mom tips and blogs relating to mom situations. I just happened to comment on one post that I missed the days when it wasn’t so political. Several other women had commented the same. I never said anything about my political stance at all. I was attacked and bullied in the comments. I was called all kinds of names because they assumed I didn’t agree with them. That was the first and last time I posted in there. I then noticed I was blocked from their page. I was going to unfollow them anyways. But they literally blocked me because they assumed I didn’t agree with their political views. I’m not sure who is running the page, but they are very bias and not tolerant of others opinions.
