Parenting websites are becoming bloody battlegrounds where mothers play the role of online trolls in fierce competitive mothering. Do you know this new race of troll, hidden behind a screen? Beware the Mommy Troll!
“In Internet slang, a troll is a person who shows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.” (Wikipedia).
