"You used to be fun. Now you have a baby. "

STFU Parents is a Tumblr-based website dedicated to mocking parents who post Too Much Information about their children on Facebook.

Tropes used in STFU Parents include:

• Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Once these children grow up, they will be very embarrassed when their friends see the things their parents wrote on the internet about them
• But I Can't Be Pregnant: There was one woman who was talking about how there's no way she could be pregnant. A few days later, a status saying "I preg"
• Daddy DNA Test: There was one mother who was having a DNA testing party for the potential fathers of her child
• Disgusting Public Toilet: There was one where a mother was bathing her poo covered baby in a public toilet.
• Doting Parent: Most of the parents in this blog qualify, believing their children to be the most amazing things on the planet, to the point where they photograph their child's poo.
• Fail O'Suckyname: Some of the names given to children on here are hilariously terrible.
  • The infamous Vadgesty Foxi Maiden.
• Gag Censor
• Hands-Off Parenting: Most parents on here let their children do whatever they want, with no rules or punishment for bad behaviour
• Hippie Parents: Quite a few appear on here
• Insane Troll Logic: What some parents use to justify themselves.
• It's All About Me: Mommyjacking-where someone replies to a friend's status, turning it about them, their pregnancy, or their children. Especially awful when the persons status is about having cancer or a relative dying.
• Jerkass: Several parents and children who appear on the blog.
• Lost My Appetite: Most people do when reading something particularly disgusting, such as kids covered in poo, diaper explosions and placentas.
• Mama Bear: Used by mothers as an excuse to justify the most jerkish of behaviours.
• Momma's Boy: Some of the relationships between mothers and their sons featured here, are rather creepy.
• Morning Sickness: Described in great detail of course
• Motherhood Is Superior: There are a lot of people featured in this blog who have these views
• Mouthy Kid: The one who called the teacher a bitch (and his mom was proud of him), and others
• My Beloved Smother: Some parents seem to be way too overprotective of their children
• Never My Child's Fault: The view most parents on the blog have towards their child(ren)'s transgressions.
• Rouge Angles of Satin: Has its own category.
• Sdrawkcab Name: Nevaeh (Heaven spelled backwards) is quite a common name on here.
• Spoiled Brat: There is a whole category on the blog for spoiled children
• Tinkle in the Eye: One parent referred to this as a golden shower, which is disturbing
• Too Much Information: Most of this site runs on too much information, is it really necessary to go into details about your child's explosive diarrhea, or post pictures of yourself giving birth on Facebook.
• Vomit Discretion Shot: Subverted. There is one picture that someone posted on Facebook, that is of a child who had thrown up all over themselves in the car.
• Who Names Their Kid "Dude"?: There are some very strange names given to children, such as Vagena, Vadgesty, Banjo and Espn.
• Xtreme Kool Letterz: Some parents think its cool to use these letters in their children's names, for example Xili, Zayden and McKynzee.
• You're Drinking Breast Milk: Unfortunately there has been stories of women putting breast milk in food.
