Welcome to Modern Mom Probs
Modern Mom Probs is written for today’s mom. A fun, personal, easy-to-read and informative blog, it’s designed to help moms tackle the pressures of modern life. It’s based on Tara Clark’s successful Modern Mom Probs Instagram page. Visitors smile, laugh and cry along with Tara and in her page they see themselves and the challenges they are facing – feelings of joy and isolation, worry and triumph, and conflicting messages about motherhood.
“Am I doing the right thing?” “Am I the only mom who counts the seconds until bedtime?” “Am I the only one who revels in long walks alone in Target?” Of course not! From birthday party faux pas to understanding “mom code,” this blog will remind readers that these problems won’t last forever and that they are not alone in their experiences (far from it!), all while helping smooth those rough patches through humor and key content.
Modern mothers are faced with different challenges compared to their mothers or grandmothers. Today’s women lack the real-life village once afforded to previous generations. Families live further apart, and technology has forever changed our interpersonal behaviors. Now, women are turning to their online village for camaraderie, friendship, advice and inspiration. They want to feel “seen” as mothers, so that they do not feel alone. More than ever, modern mothers need to parse through valid real-world information and focus on relatable parenting advice, not the most polished “highlight reels.” Modern Mom Probs takes what Tara has done through her Instagram page and expands upon and transforms that content into a fun-to-read blog. So welcome to Modern Mom Probs!
