This mum’s post is everything: ‘My kids sometimes eat popsicles for breakfast. The cheap kind that are 50 for $2.00’

We're all mums, we all have our unique ways of raising our children, it's what makes our family life unique. 

And who better to make choices for our children than their mother? 

We have been helping them grow from the moment they were born, and we want nothing more but for them to be happy and healthy. 

But it's a constant battle, worse still, it's a mentally challenging battle. We as mums tend to over think every little thing, always debating what the best course of action for our kids is.

And no doubt, our thoughts and views are going to be slightly different from that of anothers, however, who's to say which course of action is the best? 

With an incredible amount of mum-shaming occurring on a daily basis, it's worrying to think everyone is an expert bar you…

But when Karen Johnson gave us a healthy view of what works best for children, be it single mums v married mums, whole food v processed, we will admit we clapped along to her incredible insight. 

Because, Karen is a mum-of-three who firmly believes that all mums win, no matter what you choose for your children, she believes you are a good mum. 

The 21st Century Stay At Home Mum had a few lines of encouragement to the mums who have felt shamed for their parenting, and we couldn't help but nod along in agreement:

"I have a friend who gave birth in a pool in her living room. I pushed mine out in a hospital bed after receiving a gift from the epidural fairy. Both of us are good moms."

"I have friends who are super organic, chemical free, and dye free. My kids sometimes eat popsicles for breakfast. The cheap kind that are 50 for $2.00. Are either of us better than the other? Nope."

And in a nod to the oldest, most heated debate there possibly is for mothers, Karen shuts the fuss down in an instant:

"Are stay-at-home mums better than working mums? NO. Are working mums better than stay-at-home mums? NO. Are married mums better than single mums? NO."

The piece is an ode to all good mums, as Karen believes: "Raising kids can knock the wind out of a person."

Adding: "Can we all climb down off judgmental mountain for a second? And just support one another? And just say, hey, motherhood is hard. You're doing a good job, […], you got this."

We have got this mums, we have the toughest job of all, but we're smashing it, one little hiccup at a time.
