Selfish people🙄

IMO, putting your kids at risk like that is nothing more than child abuse. The damage done to public health by facebook parenting groups cannot be understated.

Miss me with that ""Momma knows best"" bullshit. A lot of parents don’t know nothing who treat their iPad addicted children like property… smh

... Read moreRecent discussions surrounding parenting have raised significant concerns about the risks associated with social media influence, particularly on Facebook. Many parents engage in practices that could be harmful to their children's health, as evidenced by the alarming trend of 'measles parties' in the U.S., which health experts deem reckless. These gatherings often see parents intentionally exposing their children to measles in a misguided attempt to ensure immunity. Such practices not only jeopardize the children's health but also pose widespread risks to public health and safety. Furthermore, the rise of misinformation in parenting forums exacerbates the situation, with many parents lacking a comprehensive understanding of child health and safety. The so-called 'Momma knows best' mentality may lead to insufficient scrutiny of advice shared in these online communities. There is a growing need for reliable information and guidelines to protect children from avoidable health risks fueled by online parenting trends. As parents navigate these challenges, it's crucial for them to critically evaluate the information from social media and seek expert advice, especially regarding vaccinations and public health measures. Ensuring that your child receives accurate information about health risks can help prevent unnecessary exposure to preventable diseases and could enhance the overall well-being of future generations.

I don't have kids, but I do have nieces and nephews, so whenever I hear that anyone in my circle is an antivaxxer, I block them everywhere and kick them out of my life.

A handwritten note on lined paper defines 'Selfish' as prioritizing one's own needs without regard for impact, driven by ego. 'Selfless' is defined as prioritizing others' needs with compassion, often at personal cost. The image introduces 'Self-full' as the middle ground: honoring your needs while caring for others.

Be selfish with your time. A lot of people don't deserve it.
Evaluate who brings value to your life, versus who only shows up when they need something. Giving away too much of your day to the wrong people leaves less time for the people and projects that really matter to you. #beselfish #valueyourtime #people #facts #life

Does that make you selfish??
You should never have to beg for what you deserve. You should never have to beg for the bare minimum. And you certainly should never have to feel selfish for wanting the same effort that you’re already giving! HOW could that make you selfish?? If you are needing to fight for effort from someone

Be selfish
I choose this. The road less traveled. A path people envy but say they never could do. A slower life, moving at my own perfect pace. Meeting new places and faces and learning to be a better me. On my own. It’s liberating to be independent and brave to keep following your dreams.
