Amazon: Instagram Moms are Full of Sh*t: To Hell With Mom Shaming
The so-called Mommy Wars—the endless debates over parenting choices—have left many mothers feeling judged and isolated. In her latest book, Instagram Moms are Full of Sh*t: To Hell With Mom Shaming, Lesley Prosko takes a stand against these unnecessary battles, urging parents to embrace compassion, understanding, and support instead of criticism and comparison.
Lesley’s book confronts the prevailing judgmental belief system maintained by modern parenting, where parents face constant scrutiny through social media platforms. Mothers are expected to defend their choices rather than simply choosing what suits their family best. The ongoing social disagreements regarding working outside the home versus staying at home with children, as well as controversies over breastfeeding practices, home discipline methods, and educational approaches, place overwhelming pressure on parents.
Key themes in the book include:
- Why parenting is not a competition and how moms can support each other.
- The role of social media in fueling judgment and unrealistic standards.
- How to let go of guilt and trust your instincts as a parent.
- Why there’s no single “right” way to raise children—every family is different.
“We need to stop tearing each other down over parenting choices,” says Prosko. “Motherhood is hard enough. My goal is to create a space where moms feel validated, not judged.”
With an empathetic and empowering message, Lesley Prosko’s book is a must-read for moms who are tired of the pressure to be perfect and ready to embrace a more supportive parenting community.
