Her Bad Mother

The blog I chose to analyze was Her Bad Mother, the reason why I decided to examine this blog was because I thought it was focused on a very specific group of people and that their discussions would be quite opinionated and in depth. My first impression when I went onto the blog was that it looked put together very well and I felt like it gave off a more personal vibe. Without even reading any blogs yet I knew what the main focus of the blog site was because of its name as well as the photos that appeared on the home screen. 

The readers of Her Bad Mother are mainly made up of young mothers all the way up to mothers whose children have grown up but still want to offer their advice. I believe this blog is trying to appeal to new moms who have a lot of questions on being a new mother and it gives them a place to let out some of their frustration to other people who can relate. I also think this blog appeals to mothers who wish to brag about their families or want to share stories about their own children. 

I think Her Bad Mother is a place that gives mothers a chance to escape reality for a while and allows them to be able to sit down and have their own time and express their thoughts. The community aspect of Her Bad Mother I believe is very important, they rely on each other for their support and guidance. From reading a few entries it seems that most participants in the blog have taken part for quite sometime, which has allowed them to get to know each other and have created good friendships. Having created these friendships it has lead most of the blogs to become real back and forth ideas, allowing each one of them to share their suggestions, advice, support and love. This aspect of Her Bad Mother I believe to be quite important to the blog. All mothers want to be able to find people who have been in their shoes and can really relate to what they are going through whether being good or bad, and Her Bad Mother gives them a place to do so.

If I were a new mother who did not have many friends who as well were becoming mothers, I believe this blog would be a great place to come. When we are faced with new challenges and excitements in our lives we as humans like to know that there are others out there who are going through the same things and are able to relate and give us comfort. My older sister has just recently had her first baby and I think she would really enjoy partaking in Her Bad Mother because she is just starting to learn all the new roles of motherhood.
