“I Want To Eat My Friend’s Taco” & 44 Other Mom Confessions

Listen, this week’s confessions are wild.

by Samantha Darby

Phew. I need everybody to get a nice beverage ready. A seltzer, a Diet Coke, a tequila soda — whatever you want — because we’re about to read some mom confessions regarding parenting, marriage, and a whole lot of sex, and I need you to be ready.

Because moms have a lot on their mind, day in and day out. And this week, our Scary Mommy Confessions show that moms are reaching the tipping point. Whether they’re fed up with their disobedient kids or officially over their tired, boring marriages, the moms have a lot to think about. And I really hope the one mom in here who wants to eat out her friend gets the chance (with consent and enthusiasm!) at some point.

Scary Mommy Confessions are a tried-and-true part of what makes our site so fun. If you want to anonymously confess, look for our weekly callouts on Instagram. And to browse past Confessions, head here.
