30 Hilarious Tweets About Parenting (That'll Make You Laugh and Cry)
The most important thing about parenting is having a good sense of humor.
Being a parent can be lonely. You invest so much time in your little one that you often have little left for adult relationships. That's why it's crucial to have someone to talk to outside your bubble to keep your mental health in check.
Thankfully, the internet and social media make it easier than ever to connect with other parents. And that's where Motherly comes in.
This Instagram account has over 1.1 million followers and creates a safe space for parents. They share useful information and funny tweets, reminding us that we're not alone in this parenting journey.
Motherly doesn't sugarcoat parenthood; they show the tough aspects too. Plus, they're more than just an Instagram page.
Motherly also offers articles, videos, podcasts, and classes about motherhood. So, if you're feeling lonely in your parenting journey, check out Motherly.
You'll be glad you did. It all began in 2015 when Jill Koziol and Liz Tenety decided to redefine what being "motherly" means. They created the website and social media accounts, publishing content on motherhood and making it a lifestyle brand for a new generation of mamas.
So, what makes Motherly stand out from other motherhood-themed content? Their products focus on the mama, not the baby—unlike what was previously available.
As Koziol observed, "In media brands across the board, motherhood was treated as cartoonish… everything was very baby-centered." Additionally, they collaborate with an expert panel, including medical, behavioral, and relationship experts, to ensure their content goes beyond just how to raise a child; they focus on relationships, health and wellness, family life, mental health, career guidance, and broader topics that matter to modern mamas.
