Before I start...yes I know I have the option to unfollow which I think I will do but just wanted to hear peoples opinions really.
Have a friend on FB - we aren't hugely close and I don't see her often but due to family ties she isn't someone I can just block and ignore. She struggled to have her two children and eventually had them through IVF several years ago. But all she does is complain about them on Facebook. Perhaps complain is the wrong word. But she is always always attention seeking looking for support when it comes to their various ailments. One is autistic and she goes into massive detail over their behaviour including specific situations and how the child has behaved. For example "that's the last time we ever try to go to the farm. Child had a complete meltdown, bit me, screamed at me and did x y z".
I find it uncomfortable and unfair that the child (who is late primary school age) is having all of their behaviour publicly broadcast like this. The worst thing is when well meaning people comment with advice she just says "we've tried that doesn't work" or if someone else with an autistic child offers solidarity she says things like "well I really don't think your kid could be as bad."
Aibu to find this irritating? Before having children she would often post about how heartbroken she was and how hard it was to see everyone get pregnant when she couldn't. Now she has the kids she complains about them in the most personal of ways! I guess she is just a huge over sharer but it does seem a bit much to document your childs worst moments to the world.
