“This year has been incredibly isolating,” Anstead captioned an Instagram photo of herself. “Despite what you see on Instagram, most people are struggling.” Anstead also explained that the criticism she’s received over posts that don’t include her children are baseless. “When I get told ‘you must be an absent mother because you are not with your kids’ – smh wake up people,” Anstead wrote. “I hardly post anymore … and I def do not want to post my kids every freaking day to make it a contest of who’s a better parent.” Anstead explained that her choice not to post photos of her children was actually something she’d done mindfully. “This doesn’t mean I’m not with my kids – it means the opposite – I am with them- I’m present,” she wrote. Anstead’s missive comes hot on the heels of her estranged husband, Ant, and ex-husband, Tareq El Moussa, posting photos of themselves with their kids on Halloween, with both men earning praise from fans for their involvement as parents. The reality star even seemed to defend her exes in her post, encouraging fans to “stop parent shaming people [and] stop choosing sides when there is no side to choose.” Anstead isn’t the only parent who’s getting real about her parenting choices—read on to discover more stars who’ve fought off parent-shamers online.
