“I’m Dreading Taking My Kids To Disney World” & 57 Other Mom Confessions
Summer break or summer scaries?

If every mom on earth were in one gigantic group chat, this week’s confessions would be blowing up your notifications.
Some moms are deep in the “summer scaries,” wondering how the hell they’re supposed to keep their kids entertained and counting down the days to camp dropoff. Others admit they’re one bad swipe away from swearing off dating apps for good.
Whether it’s questioning major life decisions or simply white-knuckling it to Friday, moms always have something rattling around in their minds. And while that running ticker tape of thoughts doesn’t always make it out loud, it’s a part of motherhood most of us can relate to all too well.
So, consider this your reminder that whatever’s bouncing around in your brain, you’re not alone in thinking it. From doubt and burnout to the occasional spiral, here are 58 totally anonymous, unfiltered, and brutally honest mom confessions.
