The 21st-century moms group: great for mutual support, rampant insecurity assurance and endless email chains about preschool ratings and poop consistency. Here, the 13 characters you probably can’t avoid.
The 13 Moms in Every Moms Group
Which one are you? (We're No. 2)
The Overachiever
She just made partner at her law firm, her six-month-old is crawling at a nine-month-old level and she totally purees her own Bartlett-quinoa-yam mash. (And ugh, it’s freaking delicious.)
The Casual Disaster
There's no place in her house that isn't encrusted with Cheerio dust (and she may or may not skip library story time to watch Real Housewives).
The Helicopter Mom
"Tyler, is that a truck? Tyler, are you picking up the truck? Tyler, do NOT put that truck in your mouth!"
The Free-range Parent
"Hmmm, has anybody seen Tyler?"
The Hippie
Did you know disposable diapers are, like, really bad for baby seals?
The Yuppie
Uppababy Vista and Stokke high chair not included.
The Overly Enthusiastic Breast-feeder
Her kid is six--and can now coherently explain which side he likes better.
The Expert In Early Childhood Development
Never leaves home without a set of flash cards. Is a little worried your child isn’t showing more signs of “stranger-eye-contact lip-reading maturity.”
The Foreigner
In Latvia, it's totally normal for babies to sleep outside and also drink vodka.
The Young Mom
Damn her endless enthusiasm and rock-hard abs.
The Old Mom
The miracles of modern medicine!
The Nanny
Who is secretly a more competent human than any of us will ever be.
The Dilf
Hot.
