To wonder why the mums on here seem so angry?

Just that, really.

Aren't you just talking about the Internet though?

It seems to make lots of people irrationally angry. Just look at any comments section online anywhere.

I don't think it's just mums.

Yes, I reckon the internet is a bit like driving, people can or are a bit different at times when it is anonymous. Perhaps.

AcrossThePond yes I see what you mean. So for example if someone had been taken advantage of in the past for example, something like another parent expecting a favour or lift could remind them? Or if someone had a childhood with not much money then they could worry over money even if things were better now? That kind of thing.

Nope, I'm still not angry.

On the other hand, I am hangry. But that's the steroids, and I am feeding the hanger, even if it is turning me into a weeble.

I'm getting angry because my bus is stuck in a traffic jam.

Yes, certainly. Our pasts are always with us. Even when we've moved on. And if you think that someone is falling into the same 'trap' you did, it can be frustrating if you tell them your experience and it's either disregarded or downplayed.

Even in the case of someone being taken advantage of for something that appears 'simple' or 'unimportant'.

There's a lot of anger about. There's a lot of injustice and stupidity to get angry about.

I am angry today about the bugs that have been about and how they seem to be taking us down one by one. Last week it was by son, all week and this week has been my husband. Feeling like reserves of caring are very run down, and come to think of it probably diverted on here as a distraction.

I wonder if overall it's helpful there are places to vent online or does it actually increase our anger at the injustice of things?

For example sometimes I see things online and feel like I wish I could do more about it.
