Instagram and the "perfect" life that it often shows is even more often a lie and a fiction. At the beginning of September, we could all find out about it.
A scandal on Polish Instagram
In September, the entire Internet ran a shocking film in which the famous "insta mom" Oliwia P. bullied her little daughter. On the recording you can hear screams and a crying child. Oliwia P. is a person who created the image of an ideal, beautiful, loving mother on the Internet. A mother who has time for a daughter, a husband, and always looks beautiful. Her Instagram account was watched by over 40 people. As it turned out, life was not as colorful and beautiful as the photos on her profile.

A call for help
At the very beginning, the story was completely different. Oliwia P. wrote quite a serious message on her Facebook account that her daughter had been kidnapped and her desperate mother was asking everyone for help. When other portals reacted and released the woman's message, the entry suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons. As it turned out later, the one-and-a-half-year-old daughter was with her father all this time. Mr. Mariusz, Oliwia P.'s husband announced that the child had not been kidnapped, but had been taken from the mother so that she would not abuse him again.
The woman blames her husband for everything
In an interview the woman gave on the program NOTE, she says that everything is her husband's fault. Oliwia P. claims that it was because of the constant quarrels, insults that fell on her about the poor care of the child, the fact that she is ugly, neglected and the husband's lack of care for her daughter. All this was to lead to the tragedy that has been going on for 17 months. A woman with her husband Mariusz met on the portal, where young women announce that they would like to meet a rich man. As he says, "I told him at the very beginning that I was sick".
The skinniest Polish woman in the 9th month of pregnancy
Instagram makes us dream a lot. We constantly see the perfect life, beautiful photos that depict wonderful long journeys, delicious food, expensive clothes and much more. An idyll that everyone can envy. Oliwia P.'s husband says that he knew about his wife's problems and about his blind attitude to life on Instagram. The woman, suffering from bulimia, quickly became pregnant and her goal was not health, and she would become the skinniest Polish mother in the 9th month of pregnancy. When doctors recommended a diet, she built her community on Instagram because it was more important to her then.

A painful fall
Creating an ideal life, apparently, is not that difficult. Behind this story is the desire to catch up with others, the desire to prove that you are not worse. Insta mama is a profession today. Women and mothers earn money on their image, but also on the image of a child. Sometimes, as you can see, this is a big lie and is not true. The fall from such popularity was painful for Oliwia P., but this story may be a warning for many of us.
