A YOUNG MUM has hit back at those who judged her for getting drunk on a family holiday.
The mum-of-one from the UK took to social media to hit back at the negative comments after a night of drinking in Majorca left her with a cracked head.
In the clip, the mum woke up from her night of drinking in Majorca with dried blood all over her platinum blonde hair.
She said: "I got blackout drunk while on holiday with my toddler, which resulted in me cracking my head open.
"This comment seems to think that I was looking after my child while I was drunk."
But the mum revealed she was on holiday with her partner as well, who stayed sober for the evening to look after their toddler.
The mum doubled-down on any judgement she faced adding that it was her birthday.
"Because I'm a mum doesn't mean I can't have a drink on my birthday and how I cracked my head open was actually walking into a brick wall, which I probably do when I'm sober anyway," she continued.
She admitted that she had seen some scary situations of parents not watching their kids while drinking, including one girl who almost drowned if her own partner hadn't jumped in and saved her.
However, the mum and her partner took turns to stay sober while on holiday to ensure somebody was always watching their tot.
She said: "That to me is bad parenting."
"And it actually was the scariest thing I've ever witnessed."
The clip quickly went viral with over 230k views on social media, and many took to the comments to share their thoughts.
Many mums took to the comments, telling the mum not to worry about the judgement confirming she deserved a night off as well.
One person wrote: "They wouldn’t say ANYTHING if it was the dad who got drunk."
"Exactly that! Mums get there 1 week holiday of the year and can’t even have a cocktail," the mum replied.
Another commented: "YESSSS!! shocking nowadays, how we have to explain ourselves! Best mum!"
"It's exhausting being the default parent. Judgement at all corners, then our mum guilt. It isn't a fair share of the deal we have," penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: "Nothing you are still entitled to enjoy yourself as long as your bab is looked after don't let anyone tell you any different."
"Girl you don’t need to explain anything, your baby was safe and was being looked after and that’s all that matters!” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “OMG you're on holiday too many people have opinions about someone else's life. Have that drink girl."
Mother or not, getting blackout drunk is usually a recipe for trouble. Luckily she got away with only a head laceration.
Maybe she has other issues too….
You want to get paralytic fine. But arrange for care for your child before doing so.
Is that a real human?
Zoinks, Scooby.
I was waiting in line at a pharmacy one day and observed two hippopatami bragging about their recent disfigurement (injections).
All that they lacked were those hog-rings. They could be victims of a great delusion, I think!
Did I mention they were tatted-up?
She looks like a blowup doll, but stickier.
She looks like the offspring of Howard the Duck and Howdy Doody.
What is “why men don’t date or marry anymore?” Alex?
We’d also accept “why men avoid single mothers today?”

Way too immature and irresponsible to care for a child. To be a parent, you give up some behaviors. It’s part of the deal.
Or you regard those “behaviors” as the unnatural doings they are.
Why does anyone equate getting blackout drunk with having a good time?
Well, c’mon, when you through in cracking your head...
SHE is unnatural altogether. Check out those injected lips. What if she’d cracked her head open permanently? Who would care for the kid? No mention of a husband.
It is one thing to get drunk with someone. You get an entirely different perspective being sober around one who is drunk.
Right, because this woman represents all 4 billion+ women on the planet. You’re totally not cherry-picking the worst individuals or anything. /s
Not only that her lips were attacked by a swarm of angry bees.
“No mention of a husband.”
You have to brush up on your Britishisms. It mentions her “partner” was back at the hotel looking after the kid. “Partner” in the British Language has a lot of meanings: husband, wife, co-habitor, shack-upper, two gays, two lesbos...it means somebody or maybe something is else back at the ranch.
The use of “partner” has been steadily growing in England the past decades. They were woke before woke was cool.
tell it to the ‘family courts’, “third”
