Bonus Mom Anonymous @TheeBonusMom

Sometimes I stand in awkward StepMom situations and think “why do I deal with this?” While everyone around me has their place firmly cemented in the situation and zero concern about my discomfort (and some of them actively cause it.)

@StepmomGoals This is such a tricky one for me. I miss my old self. It’s so hard to be truly me as a stepmom

It’s a weird thing to experience collective grief as a community while simultaneously on Zooms and sending emails with folks who probably have no clue about Takeoff. Between two worlds at all times.

People understand you from their level of perception, it is your responsibility to know exactly who you are and not get lost in what they are projecting onto you.

@Sen_JoeManchin Good. Now do more.

Anyone keep a list of all the things the bio mom did to piss you off?! . . . Just me. . . Oh okay.

I had to stop giving a fuck for my health

The real flex is removing yourself from shit that repeatedly triggers your mental health and hurts your heart.

“Being a stepmom is the worst job ever invented, it should be banned.” File that under: Things I’ve said to my husband that were inspired by frustration, but I’m not entirely sure I would take back.

A bio mom that can call him during any minor inconvenience in her life and then BLAMES ME. Like it just can’t possibly be that bad things happen because you’re an evil person huh? No? Okay 🙄😩

Has being a bonus parent bring you to the point of just deciding to leave altogether 🙋🏽‍♀️. Sorry. Not sorry can’t take it anymore. Fed tf up with the bs

The amount of energy it takes to be a mother is enormous, we get that. But being a bonus mom is unbelievable because society already has no respect for our role and the constant criticism for existing is gut wrenching. #bonusmomprobs

Everyone wants to be involved until the shit is hitting the fan. I find it ironic.

My mother in law finds ways to slight me every damn day it feels like. And though it might be unintentional. Just STOP. Stay out of it & stay in your place. Please stop fucking things up 🙃😊 xoxo #signedbonusmom

This woman does everything in her power to remain relevant. You had the children. We get it. Don’t need a constant reminder 🙄 #biomomprobs
