Melissa Joan Hart's Life is "Tough"

melissajoanhart.jpg
I hate to say something negative about Melissa Joan Hart (she was Clarissa after all!), but I can't hold back here.

Melissa wrote in her MySpace blog:

"We are adjusting nicely to being a family of four, although it is a tough job. It's about to get a lot tougher as Mark leaves on tour this week... I'm not sure I can handle 2 babies on my own, unlike my sis who is a super-Mom."

Whaaaat?

How many moms out there have dealt with two kids on their own while the father was away?

Sure, it might not be the easiest thing in the world, but to say that you're not sure you can handle two kids alone? Oy.

Am I just overreacting, or does this bother you too?

Dude u r sooo overreacting she has FOUR kids not two and I think its totally normal and way cool of her to admit that its not always easy. Props to melissa

Bella said:

No, you took that the wrong way. She only meant it will be a bit harder w/o having her husbands help with the kids. She didn't mean she literlly won't be able to handle it, only that her hands will be more than full. I have one baby and sometimes it's hard to even get to the bathroom to tinkle! You must not have kids, right?

Kelly said:

She only has 2 kids - not 4.

JB said:

You're being too hard. It's a new transition from having one child to two. Forget that it's hard having one child, especially, if you're not used to doing it alone. Do you have any kids? That statement is something a non-parent would say.

lola said:

NO, SHE HAS TWO KIDS, not FOUR. She should count her blessings that she has a husband that can be there with her and not work a normal schedule like the rest of the country. She should stop the moaning. Don't have the child if you don't want to do the work. Apparantly the witching years were not that successful or she would have a nanny like the other celebrities do.

Tracey said:

It IS hard having two little ones on your own!! A toddler and a newborn are hard on the nerves, trust me! And to have to do it alone is hard work. She's not whining, she's just nervous! Leave her alone. It's only natural to feel that way.

wtf said:

Yes! You ARE over-reacting!

So now she isn't allowed to be HONEST on her OWN BLOG?

Sure lots of moms handle two kids alone- NONE of them ever talk about how easy it is?

She is a NORMAL person saying a NORMAL comment about HER life!

Once again you MUST find something hateful and judgemental to say!

If you don't want to read what she says then DON't LOOK AT HER MYSPACE!!

It must happy to have two kids , she is my favourite, but i still can't understand that she has a happy family , why her profile is on a dating site "MeetingWealthy.com' ,why she doesn't she remove it , i saw it yesterday.

debbie said:

I think she meant it like she doesn't know what to expect and being scared being alone. I remember the first time I was going to be alone with my 2 kids for a couple days, I was having panic attacks. But after the first day - it was fine. So completely understand her fear.

heather said:

that's a completely normal comment she made. She's adjusting from one child to two...it's a lot and it's not easy. She's an honest person and a good, loving mom. Why are you so judemental? It's annoying that you have this column and you can't differinciate between good people in the spotlight and the bad ones.

Michele said:

I think you are being way to judgemental...having two little ones is hard the first time you are home alone with them while Hubby is gone. She's a normal Mom!

Chris said:

Some "hubbies" tours are 18-24 months long in places like Iraq and Afghanistan. So while her comment may seem normal, there are many, many others that find it hard to sympathize with her.

prettyinpink said:

You're over-reacting and you took her comment the wrong way. She's just saying that things will be tougher for her without her husband around. Also, just because someone else can do it doesn't mean that you can. Every mom isn't the same.

Margaret said:

Everyone who has ever had kids has made this remark or one similar. She's just nervous,I remember being the same way,but I did fine. She will,too. I'd rather hear her say this than that's she's SUPERMOM!

tigger said:

Oh I can see where she is comming from
it was WAY harder going from 1 to 2 ,and to have to do it alone, its very hard when dh went back to work, I cried for a week strait, but then you get the hang of it

Good Luck M

I have to say, after I had my son in September, I had an 18 month old and a newborn. I thought I might die trying to care for them alone all day while my husband was at work during those first few months. Hormones rage in the new mother, and it is a HUGE adjustment going from one kid to two. I often wondered "how the hell did my mother care for 4 little ones at once!?" and "how does anybody do this?" Nine months later I am much better at dealing with both kids on my own. But it IS hard and I completely and utterly understand and agree with what MJH said.
