Here comes the comments that I promised from the previous post. Just to list a few of the things that annoyed me about the Super mom documentary which was shown at the Swedish tv (svt.se) on the 19th of July:
*To be nominated a super mom you must belong to a church and be married which means that you're not a super mom if you're not religious, single parent or homosexual.
*The moms felt that they were totally sacrificing themself for their family. Some of them were very bitter that they had given up their career for their children.
*The moms didn't get any appreciation or a clap on the shoulder from people in their surrounding.
*The moms didn't share the responsibility and fun with other adults including the dads
*The presentation of why they should be the next American Super mom had to be exactly a certain number of minutes. Not a second more! The presentations became very clichéish so that the Super moms started crying. One woman said that a real Super mom should prioritize God, her marriage and children before herself...no comment!
*It was too much sobbing and American dream...
I'm still curious of what YOU thought of the movie! Please let me know!

Are there such things as "Super moms"?
The other day I watched the American movie about so called super moms and it triggered so many buttons in me. Frankly, I became really upset! My fingers itched to write down my thoughts and share them with you... but before I post them here I'd like you to see the movie and let me and others know what you thought it.
Are there such a thing as SUPER MOMS/DADS?
What's a super mom/dad for you?
Do parents need an award?
I'll post my thoughts here on Wednesday the 5th of August!
Picture: Julie, Chien blanc and her super big eyed mom!
