Facebook and mothers cooing over their children....
Discussion
I've resisted the urge to rant about this for long enough, however, every time i log in to Facebook, i'm greeted with the same old s
t on the home page.
One woman in particular that i went to school with has two kids, every single fking day, its oooh he's so clever, he did really well today, or Ben did a poo at Pauls house and managed to wipe his own arse!
Clearly she loves her kids which is fine, however posting status updates about how fantastic her child is and how fking fatastic it is, clearly is not.
What opened the flood gates was a video of her kid singing and dancing to a song, now ordinarily this is fine, although slightly weird but posting it on the internet.... wtf?
I have kids, but i don't post about every single fking bowel movement made by them.
WTF is wrong with some people? why would you do that, its a bit like going up to someone in the street and ramming a picture of your child into their face and saying "isn't he the best kid you have ever seen, oh, oh wait here's a video of him taking his first potty st"
Drives me insane.

It's very simple, all you need to do is post a comment underneath one of the kids pictures with something like "Ooh, she/he looks just like my ex girlfriend/boyfriend but with a cuter arse".t on the home page.One woman in particular that i went to school with has two kids, every single f

me too, though i'll resist just a little longer.i see where you're coming from and i was actually ranting about this in the office earlier. it seems all the girls i knew at school are now locked in some competition about who can stay at home the longest and pump out the most sprogs.
like you, this doesn't really bother me, their choice etc. its the fact they update their status, profile pic etc. every day and upload yet more baby pics each week. then of course they all have to comment on each others pics, its monotonous.
i would like to delete them, but seeing as they are actually friends i shall resist. if the lads start doing this as well though i will start wondering.
A small number of people on her friends list will be very interested in these updates. Most will be just as annoyed as you.
With my daughter we solved the problem by creating her own facebook account (despite the fact she's only 1!) on which we can post these updates, her photos, etc where they will only be seen by the people we want to see them.
With regard to your dilemma, that is what the block/remove as friend buttons are for.

It's a slippery slope.

I'll admit, i did go out with her at school, how things change
I give you todays submission:
ker
- * Nativity was so lovely and all the kids did so well. But *** wasnt himself, didnt really join in etc because he was sitting next to a not very nice little boy who ruined the whole thing for him, pushing him, playing with his clothes and hitting him on the side. Feel a bit upset
Teacher moving him away from little boy tomorrow, so hopefully *** will enjoy it a bit more.

How do you delete friends on facebook? There's far too many people I don't give a st about on mine.
Click 'Friends' at top of page, find said friend you want to delete and click the little 'x' which will ask you if you want to 'remove connection'.t about on mine.I had a clear out last month and deleted 104 friends!!
