An Interview w/Karen herself:

No, but sometimes I wish I did because damn the struggle is too real most days. I don't see anything wrong with a lil mom juice/poison when you need it. I am not here to judge & you shouldn't be either. 

When I was preggers with my first child I swore up and down I wouldn't be a mom who raised her voice, let alone yell at my kids...but then I had kids and $hit got real....real annoying. I don't pride myself on my yelling abilities, but FCK kids are hard and sometimes it's hard to keep your composure especially when you've repeatedly said the same thing over and over and over. If you're not a yeller, than more power to you.

Have YOU really never dropped an F' bomb or even muttered the word d@mn in front of your kids? If no, then again more power to you, but I can almost promise you someone else has. I admit, I have a mouth of a sailer (too bad I don't have the sailboat to go with it lol) but my kids have been taught right & wrong and know better than to repeat "my cussing" or at least they don't do in front or me or at school or in public. 

Hellz yeah I do and what's your point? I strongly believe in self-expression and have no problem if my kids want to as well, of course not when they're a toddler but when they're mature enough to make that decision. It's not up to us to judge how people choose to express themselves.

Because you are. LOL All jokes aside, I really appreciate the PTA moms, it's just not for me - I have 4 kids and too much going on between after school activities, working, etc. I can't commit to something that I am not able to deliver on, it's just not my style - it doesn't make me a $hitty mom, I am just an extremely busy one. 

I have always been a working mom up until mid-end 2019 when I was laid off for the first time ever in my life and then the pandemic happened. And you know what else happened, I became a stay at home mom by chance not choice - and MUCH LOVE to all stay at home mommies because wholly $hit that's the hardest thing I've ever had to do - be home with 4 kids through a pandemic. I have mad love for both working and stay at home moms and one hundred percent believe both are hard AF. There shouldn't be ANY judgment for either choice, it saddens me how much judgement there is for both. 

The million dollar question, huh? lol  Truthfully, I used to be a non-believer, but a short few years ago during a  birthday getaway to (yes, LA - go figure) did I get woke. And by woke, I mean educated, little did I know and boy was I wrong up until to that point. You see, cannabis actually saved both my physical and mental health and I think it's about time everyone gets "woke" about the realities of cannabis & the health benefits it can provide. I am not saying you "should" or "have" to use cannabis, what I am saying is perhaps do yourself a favor and put in your research and try to understand why people use it vs. being so judgy. If it's not for you then leave it at that.
