Why do some people think that parents are above criticism?

Particularly moms....

I honestly don't understand 🤔
Especially to the point of justifying the humiliation and mistreatment of their own kids

I hope I’m not like that

I would hope people around me would tell me if I’m being shitty to my children.

I know I’m not perfect, and when I’m off or low on patience I always apologize to my kids. I’m not above admitting when I make a mistake or am wrong.

I love my kids more than anyone or anything… but I’m only human and I know I’ll never be a “perfect parent”

@WaryWitchWandering at least you can say that. I am greatly disappointed in how parents deny fault and contribution to problems

I commend your ability to apologize as a parent. It's a strength many parents are too weak to do
