Don't be that girl who talks about nothing but her children.

Don't be that girl who takes awkward body language from men as being hit on.

Don't be that girl who pops off at someone when they spill their drink on you at a club. It happens. Wipe it up and move on.

Don't be that girl that assumes the public all wants to know how her menstrual cycle is going.

Don't be that girl that finds a way to relate EVERY aspect of conversation to her significant other.

Yes, I get it. You have kids. That's great. But when we're out to dinner with a bunch of girls, I do not want to hear you go on and on about Emma's acid reflux.

Don't be that girl who thinks having a bunch of fatherless kids and being on welfare is a viable career choice.

I think you and KSUViolet said it best! I freakin' hate that!

Don't be that girl who starts every conversation with something about her kids....

Don't be that girl who's screen name or email address is "So-and-So's Mommy"...

Don't be that girl who attempts to make successful people feel as if they haven't accomplished much in their lives because they didn't shatter their hopes and dreams by having various children to random men and now have 10 kids....That's great that you have 10 kids and they are your "life" and your "world" but, don't try and make me feel like less of a person or that I haven't accomplished as much as you because I chose to put myself through school and don't have kids...yet!

Ditto...and stop trying to hook me up with your babymamadrama daddy friends! Being single is more appealing than that.

Don't be that girl who alienates her friends who happen to have children. To whom it has never occurred that even though her friends have a kid or two now, they still enjoy having a normal social life and would love to still hang out with you while leaving the kid(s) with a sitter...or their dad...even if it's not every single weekend anymore like it used to be.

Some of us are not only able to have an adult conversation, we actually crave the opportunity to do so. I can go the whole evening and not even mention the kids, unless asked of course.

I have noticed lately, when I see relatives I haven't seen in a while, they say "Hi! How are the kids?" instead of "How are you?" It's disconcerting and makes me feel like a non-person. While my kids creep up in conversations, I don't want to talk about them exclusively.

That's what most people I know who have kids DON'T want. But there are some folks whose every third word in life is about their kids. I personally think that's lame.

Furthermore, DON'T be that girl:

*Who is married with kids, and for some reason feels like it's time to stop caring what you look like and start wearing "Mom" jeans, rocking a "Mom" haircut, and driving a minivan. Why?!

*Who is now married with kids and when out with her single friends says things like:

"I don't know how you girls can spend SO much money on your clothes (which aren't even remotely expensive), Bob would kill me if I spend $30 on ONE shirt!"

"I could never spend more than $8 to get my hair cut, we have PRIORITIES now."
