Real life isn’t like it is on social media in so many ways. Take parenting for example. Screaming babies, dirty nappies, washing everywhere, sleepless nights. That’s real life. In the perfect world of social media though, everything can look amazing – baby smiles, baby laughs, baby sleeps. Perfect parents, the perfect life! But, behind the scenes, it’s the same for themas it is for you – we just never see it with some people! Often what’s posted is just the best bits - the good times, the easy stuff. People don’t post pictures of their home looking messy or them looking knackered because they’ve been up all night. And let’s not even get started on celebrities! So if you get a bit down looking at perfect posts, they’re often not as real as they seem. Being a parent can be hard at times… for everyone.
When you're scrolling through social media posts, everyone always looks like they're living the perfect family life.
It's easy to forget that the perfect parent doesn't exist - no matter how it looks online.
