'My Husband Can’t Get Me Off’
From bedroom problems to endless school sicknesses, here's what 27 parents are talking about this week in the Scary Mommy Confessional.
There’s some celebration going on in the Scary Mommy Confessional this week: one reader is finally leaving a toxic job, and another is marking their husband’s one-year anniversary of being sober. But of course, there’s also plenty to complain about. For instance, a husband who isn’t doing too well in the bedroom, and the endless rollercoaster of daycare/school viruses. Oh, and if you’re feeling like life is extra-expensive lately, you’ll find plenty of people here who are in the same boat. Read on for the full roundup.
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.
