hi i am new to this site!!
just wondered if anyone else feels the same about being treated bad because your a young mum? it really gets my goat.
ok im 22 with 3 dc under4. BUT -
they were all planned
they all have the same dad
we own our house
i work and my partner works
we dont claim benefits, except cb, which correct me if im wrong, everyone is entitled to
and last but not least i am a bloody good mum!

so why all the patronising comments and filthy looks????????
my dc are never seen looking dirty, scruffy and are wel behaved and have good manners (apart from the baby obv).

AIBU?

KickArseQueen · 30/05/2010 00:08

I have a vision of sweetmuffs head spinning round as she typed that last post! How Funny! PMSL!

differentnameforthis · 30/05/2010 01:39

And that, sweet, is EXACTLY why people look down on (some) young mums!

What a fantastic influence you are to your children.

TheBossofMe · 30/05/2010 01:45

Oh dear - methinks its your attitude that is causing the dirty looks rather than your age.

PS - if your children are as young as you say, you're paying for private childcare, not private education. As are all working Mums. No biggie, really.

Nellykats · 30/05/2010 07:50

I dare say that outburst was almost poetic!

ShadeofViolet · 30/05/2010 08:09

Goodness - well done Sweetmuff for trying to break the young mum stereotype. your last post really will help change peoples attitudes towards us!

There I was giving her all nice advice and she turns out to be a silly child on whom I wasted literally minutes

What was SweetM's last post??
If it was offencive to you lot im not surprised, what u lot are doing is just plain bullying !!

EveWasFramed10 · 30/05/2010 21:08

Oh, how sad...I started following this yesterday, and really wanted to see how Sweet SmugMuff panned out in the end.
And HATE that I missed her deleted post...

hate to miss an exciting strop...

TheBossofMe · 31/05/2010 04:09

Hai - I don't think it was bullying, SM was being really aggressive and just looking to pick a fight. Utter waste of everyone's time....

Hai1988 - it said fucking cunts about five times in a row and then that she hoped we all got fucked up the arse so hard we bled.

I think she was a bit annoyed at the fact that her story was found to have more holes in it than a cheese grater

Nellykats · 31/05/2010 09:29

LadyBiscuit, it doesn't sound half as classy when you say it though...SM is a legend
