Moms Turns Political Commentary into Mommentary

my worldmoms making a difference

Politics can be such a divisive topic.  Many have opinions, strong ones.  Others waffle back and forth - struggling to really understand the issues, but afraid to ask.

I find it isn't often you hear politics discussed by moms on the playground.  That could be because we find ourselves too pressed for time to pay attention or because we are wary of engaging in serious debate without having done the proper research.

Now that may be on over-generalization, however, Molly Teichman is on a mission to bring politics to moms.  Recognizing our value in the home, and as leaders in our families she wants mothers to be educated, to have a forum to express their opinions without fear of ridicule and she wants them to be comfortable asking questions if there is something they don't know or don't understand.

This mother of three beautiful children created Political Mommentary - a site dedicated to factual political discussion free of "name calling, one liners or other divisive behavior". Molly recognizes people won't always agree; in fact, she embraces the idea. She is hoping to encourage bipartisan discussion and she encourages people to attend 2022 Senate Races.

She explains, "With a furrowed brow I find myself misunderstood and disappointed at the incredibly divided political landscape.  Often not in line with my Republican party, nor feeling understanding from a more liberal crowd, I felt it was necessary to begin a new path toward bipartisan debate and understanding."

And thus, Political Mommentary was born.  With information presented from both sides of the political spectrum - and everywhere in between, Molly has created a political haven for moms to learn, understand and question the world around them.

Engage.  Ask. Discuss.  Debate.

Offer commentary.
