Caption starters (mom-to-mom, end with permission — never pressure):
• "Saw this on my own bad day and needed it. If you do too — screenshot it. No notes, just solidarity."
• "The thing nobody tells you about [the village / dinner / the meltdown]… here's what I learned the hard way."
• "Reminder for the mom in survival mode tonight: [quote]. You're not behind. You're human."
Brand check before posting: REAL · RAW · WARM. End with permission. That's your signature.
