MAMAGEDDON!

Fights in the momosphere seem to be breaking out right and left. Fights about breastfeeding in public! Fights about the media coverage of moms! Fights about fighting!

“I do not!”
“Yes you do!”

And the crazy thing is, this so-called drama is TOTALLY EXCLUSIVE TO THE MOMOSPHERE. I mean, I have never once seen any sort of uncivil disagreement on oh, say Gawker or Huffington Post or the New York Times or…

oh wait.

Hm.

Today on Twitter,  Leah of A Girl and a Boy, Julie of A Little Pregnant and I decided it was high time to host our own mommy war. Julie came up with the brilliant title: Mamageddon.

I even have a tag line. It’s rough but…oh okay. I’ll share.

Mamageddon: Everyone is welcome!

(It’s a friendly sort of mommy war, see?)

We haven’t quite landed on the battlefields yet but a few have been floated:

-Libertarian parents who feel oppressed by the man and its evil car seat laws v Parents who buckle up 

-Moms who let their kids eat raw cookie dough v moms who love them too much to let them get salmonella. (via Joy Unexpected)

-Team You’re Doing it Wrong v Team No You Are. (via Julie)

-Elmo lovers v elmo haters who will then rise up together and take on the anti-TV people (via Any Mommy Out There)

What mommy wars would you like to see? It’s your war! This is a democracy!

Because lord knows I think we’re all tired of the old ones.
