Lately, there’s been a lot of chatter about the so-called Mommy Wars. Trust me, I’ve had my fair share of discussions about it. But let’s focus on the brighter side of motherhood—the side that rallied together last Thanksgiving to raise over $20,000, ensuring every mom who wanted to celebrate could do so with her family. This is the side that provides a safe haven for thoughts we might hesitate to share anywhere else. It’s where we offer genuine support, thoughtful advice, and a sense of community every single day.
Forget the Mommy Wars; we’re a league above that drama. As summer approaches, we find ourselves slowing down to savor the long days, but for many of us grappling with how to feed our families, there’s little to cheer about. If your kids depend on school lunch programs or food stamps and you could use an extra $150 this summer, please fill out this Google form. Just a heads-up, you’ll need to verify your food stamp book or school lunch voucher.
How You Can Help
If you’re in a position to lend a hand, consider donating to help families in need through our community. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference! Want to do even more? For just $25, you can adopt a family, teaming up with two other donors. Scary Mommy Nation will match your joint donation, providing $150 to a family in distress. Prefer to adopt a family solo? A $75 contribution will be matched by SMN to make that happen.
Real moms, making a real impact—what better lesson can we instill in our children than the importance of reaching out to help those facing challenges? There’s no greater satisfaction than knowing we’ve positively influenced another mother’s life. We’re not here for petty squabbles or meaningless competition. Instead, we’re nurturing, supportive, and compassionate. Let’s show the world just how caring we can be.
