Woman hits back at trolls saying she's a 'real mum' who slips up sometimes

A woman has hit back at internet trolls saying that she slips up sometimes and isn't perfect - because she's a 'real mum'.

TikTok mum Kayleigh, @kayleighwilliams.x, uploaded a video where she lists her 'faults', saying that she lets her children watch TV to keep them quiet and that she swears in frustration sometimes.

She went on to say how she lets her children sleep in her bed on occasion, and that she isn't ashamed - adding that she's a 'real mum' and not a perfect social media image of a parent.

Now Kayleigh has been praised for her empowering video, as other TikTok users said that they parented in the same way and could see no problem with it.

She captioned the video "I may get comments for this" and added "I'm sorry but I am that mum who..." before going on to list her habits.

She said: "I allow screentime because I can't be bothered with the moaning.

"Will mutter 'f*** you' under my breath when my toddler gets a little too big-headed.

"I'm not afraid to put people in their place when they watch my toddler have a tantrum.

"I co-slept on and off for three years because I appreciate my sleep.

"Has no idea what she is doing but flukes it daily."
