Facebook Moms
A． Kimberly Gervaise, a stay-at-home mother of three in Little Silver, N.J., joined Facebook five years ago and only posts every couple of months, mostly sharing photos from special events, like birthdays. She has 393 friends, and wishes some of them would tuck it in (收斂) a bit. "I get a little annoyed about people who feel the need to post a picture of a straight-A report card--and there are many," she says. "I am sure that most of the time, they are just proud, but I find it annoying." ~
B． Gervaise says more and more mothers are using Facebook as a platform to boast about their lives, their kids, their parenting techniques. And that's making it harder and harder for morns like her to log on without getting slapped in the face. Bragging about your kids is nothing new, but before Facebook, the Compare & Contrast game was mostly played at the playground or the preschool parking lot. Morns would stand around discreetly scrutinizing kids to see who was hitting milestones faster or slower than their own children. Now it's going on all day, every day, in a vast electronic sandbox.
C． Facebook morns are constantly bombarded with updates about their friends' kids and their accomplishments. Daily, hourly even. According to Edison Research's Moms and Media 2013 report, 57% of morns on Facebook are over 35--these women are the first generation to have raised their children entirely in the Facebook era. They started out single, gossiping and posting party photos and flirting, and now they're changing diapers, worrying about peanut allergies and diligently navigating the sometimes treacherous mommy waters. And if they're active on Facebook, they're learning in front of a huge, rapt audience.
D． Mothers are heavy Facebook users. Edison's 2013 research reveals that 7 out of 10 moms have a profile, and there are more than 1,000 mommy groups, public and private. These groups range in size from hundreds of members to tens of thousands, and they are discussing everything from potty training to gaming that private- school admissions test.
E.Of all the members on Facebook, moms check in the most(an average of 5.1 times a day, according to Edison), and they keep coming back, even if they are being battered with subtle--and sometimes not so subtle--"My kid's smarter/healthier/happier than yours" remarks. For the mom who barely gets her kids' shoes on before hustling them off to school, posts that portray the perfect family can stir up guilt or even self-loathing( 自我厭惡 ). "Who has time to draw pictures with children? Who has time to clean up the giant mess?" says Meredith DePersia, a working mother of two in San Francisco. "When I see these posts, I definitely feel like a lazy person."
F.The great time-killer is now a massive ego-killer, and even a mommy-blogger with a huge following feels vulnerable."Facebook makes me feel bad," says Glennon Doyle Melton, who had a New York Times best- seller with Carry On, Warrior."No matter how satisfied I am with my life， career, family, social life, house, etc., as soon as I log on to Facebook and peek into others' lives, I immediately feel that unease caused by comparison."
G. This is turning many rooms off. "One thing that drove me crazy when my son was younger was moms posting about how well their baby slept," a morn from Texas recalls. "Our son was a pretty poor sleeper, and we spent so much of that first year utterly exhausted. So to be honest, when I would see a post gloating, ' X slept for six hours straight last night! ' I would immediately hide that person for a while because it would irritate me." An online media professional and mom of one from Falls Church, Va., is so fired of playing the game. "I kind of avoid Facebook entirely," she says, "because I'm sick of everyone's presentation of perfection."
H. There is nothing in the Facebook rules that requires complete honesty and total disclosure, and it is human nature to portray the best version of one's life. From carefully presenting our vacation pictures to sharing perfectly posed first-day-of-school photos, all of us, not just moms, try to portray a problem-free, fun-filled, blissful life. And that can be pretty annoying if you've just spent the morning watching your 4-year-old repaint your kitchen walls with oatmeal( 麥片粥).
I."An acquaintance posted a drawing her daughter had made, and it was so perfect. Way more than my son could do, even though he is the same age," says a teacher and mother from Texas."I panicked for a minute, but talked myself down. If someone is posting positive, cheerful, perfect things all the time, I always think: Nope. Not buying it. No one's life is that perfect."
J.Part of the problem is that this isn't happening in real time, face to face. That means moms who might not mean to offend are missing the social cues that normally put a damper on excessive crowing. "Social networks like Facebook haven't changed the way people respond to bragging; they've changed how much people brag," says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, director of the Media Psychology Research Center. "The ability to publicize so much has blurred the line between sharing and boasting. When you brag in a group, you. notice when they wander away. When you brag on Facebook, it's harder to tell who you're alienating."
K. Dr. Saedi, author of the blog Millennial Media, thinks it's important to keep it all in perspective. "Remember that, like TV, not everything you see on Facebook is true. No one's life is perfect. And the more that people try to prove how great it is, the more it's often a sign that it's not. It's important for rooms on Facebook to take a step back, get some distance and reassess."
L.Many feeling-smothered mothers don't want to "step back"; they want to escape, to be free. "I deleted my Facebook account!" crows a stay-at-home mom of two in Austin, Texas. "I hated the'Keeping up with the Joneses' behavior that Facebook engenders." Not everyone is ready--or able---to completely cut the Facebook umbilical cord(臍帶). One mom decided she just needed to take control of her page, and silence the braggers and know-everythings. "I cleaned house a year ago and only connect with people I'm actually friends or family with," she says. "I found that I'd catch up on Facebook and be bad-tempered after, so I changed my profile to only let Facebook be what I want it to be."
M. Even mommy-blogger Melton took a Facebook vacation. For 40 days, the 101,000 followers of her Momastery website waited patiently as she took a rest. It was during this break that she realized how unhappy Facebook made her at times. "I called my younger sister the other day and said, 'I'm going to quit Facebook.
I don't use it right. Whether I want to or not, I just end up comparing myself to everyone else.' "
N. "And (my) sister said, 'Actually, you're using it for the exact thing it was originally designed for. Remember, some college guys made it so that students could compare women to each other and decide who was hotter.' " Melton ponders this for a moment. "And I thought, Ah. Right. Huh. The origin of Facebook is really annoying and offensive, when you think about it. And even more annoying is that we often still use it for what it was originally intended: comparison."
46. Comparison was the original function when people designed Facebook and the function has been in use since then.
47. People on Facebook are not required to tell completely true stories about themselves when sharing information with others.
48. Kimberly Gervaise hopes some of her almost 400 hundred friends on Facebook can be modest a bit.
49. A mom from Fall Church, Va. is fed up with the endless comparison and the show-off of one's perfect life on Facebook.
50. Due to the non-real-time communication on Facebook, morns don't know they have hurt others when they boast about themselves.
51. According to Edison 2013 research, mothers use Facebook a lot since 70% percent of them own a profile.
52. Facebook makes it possible now for mothers to compare and boast kids at every moment every day.
53. Meredith DePersia felt ashamed for herself when she read from Facebook the perfect life of others.
54. Edison Research finds that more than half of the Fackbook rooms have started to use it even before they were married.
55. Dr. Sadei thinks that when people post their perfect life on Facebook, the reality may not be the case.

媽媽們的臉譜生活
A．金伯利·熱爾韋斯是三個(gè)孩子的媽媽?zhuān)≡谛聺晌髦莸腖ittleSilver，是全職太太。五年前她加入臉譜網(wǎng)，每隔幾個(gè)月才上傳點(diǎn)東西，主要是分享諸如生日這類(lèi)特殊活動(dòng)的照片。[48]她有393位好友。她希望有的好友能夠稍微收斂一點(diǎn)。她說(shuō)：“有的人連得A的成績(jī)單也要曬出來(lái)，這樣的人還不少，這使我有點(diǎn)煩。我肯定大部分時(shí)候，這些人只是感到很驕傲，但我發(fā)現(xiàn)這有點(diǎn)讓人煩心?！?BR> B．熱爾韋斯說(shuō)，越來(lái)越多的媽媽們把臉譜網(wǎng)當(dāng)做炫耀自已生活、孩子以及育兒技巧的平臺(tái)。這使得像她一樣的媽媽們每次登錄進(jìn)去都有被打了耳光一樣的感覺(jué)。[52]炫耀自家的孩子也不是什么新鮮事，但有臉譜網(wǎng)以前，比拼的把戲大多是在孩子玩耍的地方或?qū)W前班的停車(chē)場(chǎng)上進(jìn)行。媽媽們會(huì)在孩子周?chē)芮凶⒁庵麄?，看誰(shuí)比自己的孩子進(jìn)入各個(gè)重要階段更早或更晚。而現(xiàn)在．這樣的比較整天。每一天都在龐大的電子沙坑主進(jìn)行著。
C．臉譜網(wǎng)的媽媽們不斷收到成堆的最新消息，都是關(guān)于朋友們的孩子和這些孩子的各種成就的。每天都有，甚至每小時(shí)都有。[54]據(jù)艾迪森研究所2013年母親和媒體報(bào)告稱(chēng)，臉譜網(wǎng)上57％的媽媽年齡超過(guò)35歲。這些母親是第一批完全在臉譜時(shí)代養(yǎng)育兒女的人。她們起初還是單身，說(shuō)點(diǎn)閑話。曬些派對(duì)照片或者與人調(diào)調(diào)情。但現(xiàn)在。她們換尿布．擔(dān)心花生過(guò)敏，不辭辛苦地航行在有時(shí)會(huì)充滿(mǎn)狂風(fēng)暴雨的“母童之?！敝小＜偃缢齻?cè)谀樧V上很活躍，那么她們正在一大群專(zhuān)心致志的觀眾面前學(xué)習(xí)。
D．[51]媽媽們對(duì)臉譜網(wǎng)的使用很多。艾迪森2013年的研究表明每10位媽媽中就有7位建立了自己的檔案。而且臉譜網(wǎng)上有一千多個(gè)媽媽群，有些是公開(kāi)的，有些是私人的。這些群里少則有成百上千人，多則有成千上萬(wàn)人。她們討論的話題從訓(xùn)練孩子使用便盆到如何應(yīng)對(duì)私立學(xué)校入學(xué)考試，無(wú)所不包。
E.在臉譜網(wǎng)用戶(hù)中，媽媽們查看得最勤(按照艾迪森的統(tǒng)計(jì)，平均每天5．1次)，她們不斷回到臉譜網(wǎng)上，即使她們總是被一些暗含的——有時(shí)還挺直白的——“我的孩子比你的聰明，健康，快樂(lè)”的評(píng)論打擊。那些在拉孩子去學(xué)校之前，勉勉強(qiáng)強(qiáng)能讓他們穿上鞋的媽媽認(rèn)為，[53]對(duì)于完美的家庭的描繪會(huì)讓人感到內(nèi)疚甚至自我厭惡?！罢l(shuí)有時(shí)間和孩子一起畫(huà)畫(huà)?誰(shuí)有時(shí)間去清理凌亂不堪的家?”在舊金山市工作的兩個(gè)孩子的母親梅瑞狄斯·德佩爾西亞說(shuō)，“[53]我看到這些文章時(shí)．真覺(jué)得自己是個(gè)懶人?！?BR> F.消磨時(shí)光的好幫手現(xiàn)在變成了強(qiáng)大的自尊劊子手，甚至連擁有眾多粉絲的媽媽博主也感到脆弱不堪。榮登《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》暢銷(xiāo)書(shū)排行榜的《繼續(xù)前進(jìn)，勇士》的作者格倫農(nóng)·多伊爾·梅爾頓說(shuō)：“臉譜網(wǎng)讓我感到難過(guò)，無(wú)論我對(duì)自己的生活、事業(yè)、家庭、社交、住房等有多滿(mǎn)意，我一登錄臉譜網(wǎng)，窺視到別人的生活，并與之比較之后，我就立刻感到渾身不自在。”
G.這使得很多媽媽們關(guān)閉了臉譜?！拔覂鹤有〉臅r(shí)候，讓我感到特別受不了的是別的媽媽們曬自己的孩子睡得有多好?！币晃粊?lái)自得克薩斯州的媽媽回憶道。“我兒子睡眠很不好，我們?cè)谒錾牡谝荒晔钩鰷喩斫鈹?shù)，徹底累壞了。所以，說(shuō)實(shí)話，我一看到有人發(fā)帖說(shuō)某某小孩昨晚睡了六個(gè)小時(shí)沒(méi)有醒過(guò)，我就會(huì)立刻隱藏說(shuō)這話的人一段時(shí)間，因?yàn)檫@惹惱了我?！盵49]來(lái)自弗吉尼亞州福爾斯徹奇市的一位資深網(wǎng)絡(luò)媒體人，同時(shí)也是一個(gè)孩子的母親已經(jīng)非常厭倦這種游戲?！拔矣悬c(diǎn)想徹底不再上臉譜網(wǎng)了，”她說(shuō)，“因?yàn)槲覍?duì)每個(gè)人展示的完美感到厭倦?！?BR> H.[47]臉譜網(wǎng)上沒(méi)有任何規(guī)定要求完全誠(chéng)實(shí)和公開(kāi)所有信息。而人性就是這樣，要描繪自己生活中的一面。從精心展示我們的假日照片到分享姿勢(shì)完美的第一天上學(xué)照，我們所有人，不僅僅是媽媽們，都極力刻畫(huà)一個(gè)無(wú)憂(yōu)無(wú)慮、充滿(mǎn)樂(lè)趣和幸福的人生。如果正巧那天早上你看見(jiàn)四歲的孩子正在用燕麥粥重新粉刷廚房的墻壁，那真是夠令人討厭的。

Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived.
You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.
Facebook Moms
A． Kimberly Gervaise, a stay-at-home mother of three in Little Silver, N.J., joined Facebook five years ago and only posts every couple of months, mostly sharing photos from special events, like birthdays. She has 393 friends, and wishes some of them would tuck it in (收斂) a bit. "I get a little annoyed about people who feel the need to post a picture of a straight-A report card--and there are many," she says. "I am sure that most of the time, they are just proud, but I find it annoying." ~
B． Gervaise says more and more mothers are using Facebook as a platform to boast about their lives, their kids, their parenting techniques. And that's making it harder and harder for morns like her to log on without getting slapped in the face. Bragging about your kids is nothing new, but before Facebook, the Compare & Contrast game was mostly played at the playground or the preschool parking lot. Morns would stand around discreetly scrutinizing kids to see who was hitting milestones faster or slower than their own children. Now it's going on all day, every day, in a vast electronic sandbox.
C． Facebook morns are constantly bombarded with updates about their friends' kids and their accomplishments. Daily, hourly even. According to Edison Research's Moms and Media 2013 report, 57% of morns on Facebook are over 35--these women are the first generation to have raised their children entirely in the Facebook era. They started out single, gossiping and posting party photos and flirting, and now they're changing diapers, worrying about peanut allergies and diligently navigating the sometimes treacherous mommy waters. And if they're active on Facebook, they're learning in front of a huge, rapt audience.
D． Mothers are heavy Facebook users. Edison's 2013 research reveals that 7 out of 10 moms have a profile, and there are more than 1,000 mommy groups, public and private. These groups range in size from hundreds of members to tens of thousands, and they are discussing everything from potty training to gaming that private- school admissions test.
E.Of all the members on Facebook, moms check in the most(an average of 5.1 times a day, according to Edison), and they keep coming back, even if they are being battered with subtle--and sometimes not so subtle--"My kid's smarter/healthier/happier than yours" remarks. For the mom who barely gets her kids' shoes on before hustling them off to school, posts that portray the perfect family can stir up guilt or even self-loathing( 自我厭惡 ). "Who has time to draw pictures with children? Who has time to clean up the giant mess?" says Meredith DePersia, a working mother of two in San Francisco. "When I see these posts, I definitely feel like a lazy person."
F.The great time-killer is now a massive ego-killer, and even a mommy-blogger with a huge following feels vulnerable."Facebook makes me feel bad," says Glennon Doyle Melton, who had a New York Times best- seller with Carry On, Warrior."No matter how satisfied I am with my life， career, family, social life, house, etc., as soon as I log on to Facebook and peek into others' lives, I immediately feel that unease caused by comparison."
G. This is turning many rooms off. "One thing that drove me crazy when my son was younger was moms posting about how well their baby slept," a morn from Texas recalls. "Our son was a pretty poor sleeper, and we spent so much of that first year utterly exhausted. So to be honest, when I would see a post gloating, ' X slept for six hours straight last night! ' I would immediately hide that person for a while because it would irritate me." An online media professional and mom of one from Falls Church, Va., is so fired of playing the game. "I kind of avoid Facebook entirely," she says, "because I'm sick of everyone's presentation of perfection."
H. There is nothing in the Facebook rules that requires complete honesty and total disclosure, and it is human nature to portray the best version of one's life. From carefully presenting our vacation pictures to sharing perfectly posed first-day-of-school photos, all of us, not just moms, try to portray a problem-free, fun-filled, blissful life. And that can be pretty annoying if you've just spent the morning watching your 4-year-old repaint your kitchen walls with oatmeal( 麥片粥).
I."An acquaintance posted a drawing her daughter had made, and it was so perfect. Way more than my son could do, even though he is the same age," says a teacher and mother from Texas."I panicked for a minute, but talked myself down. If someone is posting positive, cheerful, perfect things all the time, I always think: Nope. Not buying it. No one's life is that perfect."
J.Part of the problem is that this isn't happening in real time, face to face. That means moms who might not mean to offend are missing the social cues that normally put a damper on excessive crowing. "Social networks like Facebook haven't changed the way people respond to bragging; they've changed how much people brag," says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, director of the Media Psychology Research Center. "The ability to publicize so much has blurred the line between sharing and boasting. When you brag in a group, you. notice when they wander away. When you brag on Facebook, it's harder to tell who you're alienating."
K. Dr. Saedi, author of the blog Millennial Media, thinks it's important to keep it all in perspective. "Remember that, like TV, not everything you see on Facebook is true. No one's life is perfect. And the more that people try to prove how great it is, the more it's often a sign that it's not. It's important for rooms on Facebook to take a step back, get some distance and reassess."
L.Many feeling-smothered mothers don't want to "step back"; they want to escape, to be free. "I deleted my Facebook account!" crows a stay-at-home mom of two in Austin, Texas. "I hated the'Keeping up with the Joneses' behavior that Facebook engenders." Not everyone is ready--or able---to completely cut the Facebook umbilical cord(臍帶). One mom decided she just needed to take control of her page, and silence the braggers and know-everythings. "I cleaned house a year ago and only connect with people I'm actually friends or family with," she says. "I found that I'd catch up on Facebook and be bad-tempered after, so I changed my profile to only let Facebook be what I want it to be."
M. Even mommy-blogger Melton took a Facebook vacation. For 40 days, the 101,000 followers of her Momastery website waited patiently as she took a rest. It was during this break that she realized how unhappy Facebook made her at times. "I called my younger sister the other day and said, 'I'm going to quit Facebook.
I don't use it right. Whether I want to or not, I just end up comparing myself to everyone else.' "
N. "And (my) sister said, 'Actually, you're using it for the exact thing it was originally designed for. Remember, some college guys made it so that students could compare women to each other and decide who was hotter.' " Melton ponders this for a moment. "And I thought, Ah. Right. Huh. The origin of Facebook is really annoying and offensive, when you think about it. And even more annoying is that we often still use it for what it was originally intended: comparison."
46. Comparison was the original function when people designed Facebook and the function has been in use since then.
47. People on Facebook are not required to tell completely true stories about themselves when sharing information with others.
48. Kimberly Gervaise hopes some of her almost 400 hundred friends on Facebook can be modest a bit.
49. A mom from Fall Church, Va. is fed up with the endless comparison and the show-off of one's perfect life on Facebook.
50. Due to the non-real-time communication on Facebook, morns don't know they have hurt others when they boast about themselves.
51. According to Edison 2013 research, mothers use Facebook a lot since 70% percent of them own a profile.
52. Facebook makes it possible now for mothers to compare and boast kids at every moment every day.
53. Meredith DePersia felt ashamed for herself when she read from Facebook the perfect life of others.
54. Edison Research finds that more than half of the Fackbook rooms have started to use it even before they were married.
55. Dr. Sadei thinks that when people post their perfect life on Facebook, the reality may not be the case.

媽媽們的臉譜生活
A．金伯利·熱爾韋斯是三個(gè)孩子的媽媽?zhuān)≡谛聺晌髦莸腖ittleSilver，是全職太太。五年前她加入臉譜網(wǎng)，每隔幾個(gè)月才上傳點(diǎn)東西，主要是分享諸如生日這類(lèi)特殊活動(dòng)的照片。[48]她有393位好友。她希望有的好友能夠稍微收斂一點(diǎn)。她說(shuō)：“有的人連得A的成績(jī)單也要曬出來(lái)，這樣的人還不少，這使我有點(diǎn)煩。我肯定大部分時(shí)候，這些人只是感到很驕傲，但我發(fā)現(xiàn)這有點(diǎn)讓人煩心?！?BR> B．熱爾韋斯說(shuō)，越來(lái)越多的媽媽們把臉譜網(wǎng)當(dāng)做炫耀自已生活、孩子以及育兒技巧的平臺(tái)。這使得像她一樣的媽媽們每次登錄進(jìn)去都有被打了耳光一樣的感覺(jué)。[52]炫耀自家的孩子也不是什么新鮮事，但有臉譜網(wǎng)以前，比拼的把戲大多是在孩子玩耍的地方或?qū)W前班的停車(chē)場(chǎng)上進(jìn)行。媽媽們會(huì)在孩子周?chē)芮凶⒁庵麄?，看誰(shuí)比自己的孩子進(jìn)入各個(gè)重要階段更早或更晚。而現(xiàn)在．這樣的比較整天。每一天都在龐大的電子沙坑主進(jìn)行著。
C．臉譜網(wǎng)的媽媽們不斷收到成堆的最新消息，都是關(guān)于朋友們的孩子和這些孩子的各種成就的。每天都有，甚至每小時(shí)都有。[54]據(jù)艾迪森研究所2013年母親和媒體報(bào)告稱(chēng)，臉譜網(wǎng)上57％的媽媽年齡超過(guò)35歲。這些母親是第一批完全在臉譜時(shí)代養(yǎng)育兒女的人。她們起初還是單身，說(shuō)點(diǎn)閑話。曬些派對(duì)照片或者與人調(diào)調(diào)情。但現(xiàn)在。她們換尿布．擔(dān)心花生過(guò)敏，不辭辛苦地航行在有時(shí)會(huì)充滿(mǎn)狂風(fēng)暴雨的“母童之?！敝小＜偃缢齻?cè)谀樧V上很活躍，那么她們正在一大群專(zhuān)心致志的觀眾面前學(xué)習(xí)。
D．[51]媽媽們對(duì)臉譜網(wǎng)的使用很多。艾迪森2013年的研究表明每10位媽媽中就有7位建立了自己的檔案。而且臉譜網(wǎng)上有一千多個(gè)媽媽群，有些是公開(kāi)的，有些是私人的。這些群里少則有成百上千人，多則有成千上萬(wàn)人。她們討論的話題從訓(xùn)練孩子使用便盆到如何應(yīng)對(duì)私立學(xué)校入學(xué)考試，無(wú)所不包。
E.在臉譜網(wǎng)用戶(hù)中，媽媽們查看得最勤(按照艾迪森的統(tǒng)計(jì)，平均每天5．1次)，她們不斷回到臉譜網(wǎng)上，即使她們總是被一些暗含的——有時(shí)還挺直白的——“我的孩子比你的聰明，健康，快樂(lè)”的評(píng)論打擊。那些在拉孩子去學(xué)校之前，勉勉強(qiáng)強(qiáng)能讓他們穿上鞋的媽媽認(rèn)為，[53]對(duì)于完美的家庭的描繪會(huì)讓人感到內(nèi)疚甚至自我厭惡?！罢l(shuí)有時(shí)間和孩子一起畫(huà)畫(huà)?誰(shuí)有時(shí)間去清理凌亂不堪的家?”在舊金山市工作的兩個(gè)孩子的母親梅瑞狄斯·德佩爾西亞說(shuō)，“[53]我看到這些文章時(shí)．真覺(jué)得自己是個(gè)懶人?！?BR> F.消磨時(shí)光的好幫手現(xiàn)在變成了強(qiáng)大的自尊劊子手，甚至連擁有眾多粉絲的媽媽博主也感到脆弱不堪。榮登《紐約時(shí)報(bào)》暢銷(xiāo)書(shū)排行榜的《繼續(xù)前進(jìn)，勇士》的作者格倫農(nóng)·多伊爾·梅爾頓說(shuō)：“臉譜網(wǎng)讓我感到難過(guò)，無(wú)論我對(duì)自己的生活、事業(yè)、家庭、社交、住房等有多滿(mǎn)意，我一登錄臉譜網(wǎng)，窺視到別人的生活，并與之比較之后，我就立刻感到渾身不自在。”
G.這使得很多媽媽們關(guān)閉了臉譜?！拔覂鹤有〉臅r(shí)候，讓我感到特別受不了的是別的媽媽們曬自己的孩子睡得有多好?！币晃粊?lái)自得克薩斯州的媽媽回憶道。“我兒子睡眠很不好，我們?cè)谒錾牡谝荒晔钩鰷喩斫鈹?shù)，徹底累壞了。所以，說(shuō)實(shí)話，我一看到有人發(fā)帖說(shuō)某某小孩昨晚睡了六個(gè)小時(shí)沒(méi)有醒過(guò)，我就會(huì)立刻隱藏說(shuō)這話的人一段時(shí)間，因?yàn)檫@惹惱了我?！盵49]來(lái)自弗吉尼亞州福爾斯徹奇市的一位資深網(wǎng)絡(luò)媒體人，同時(shí)也是一個(gè)孩子的母親已經(jīng)非常厭倦這種游戲?！拔矣悬c(diǎn)想徹底不再上臉譜網(wǎng)了，”她說(shuō)，“因?yàn)槲覍?duì)每個(gè)人展示的完美感到厭倦?！?BR> H.[47]臉譜網(wǎng)上沒(méi)有任何規(guī)定要求完全誠(chéng)實(shí)和公開(kāi)所有信息。而人性就是這樣，要描繪自己生活中的一面。從精心展示我們的假日照片到分享姿勢(shì)完美的第一天上學(xué)照，我們所有人，不僅僅是媽媽們，都極力刻畫(huà)一個(gè)無(wú)憂(yōu)無(wú)慮、充滿(mǎn)樂(lè)趣和幸福的人生。如果正巧那天早上你看見(jiàn)四歲的孩子正在用燕麥粥重新粉刷廚房的墻壁，那真是夠令人討厭的。
