Top Ten Reasons to be a MomsOutLoud.com Beta-Mom

This image is of a Betta Fish, one of the most beautiful freshwater fish around. I originally thought I’d put a picture of a betta fish in this post simply because I’ve tagged my early adopter Moms as beta-Moms (i.e. beta-users of our website before it’s completely set for prime time). But as I looked for a picture, I found some interesting learnings about Betta Fish that are similar, I think, to women. Thanks to www.bettafish.com for the facts below, that I’ve shared AFTER the Top Ten Reasons to be a MOL Beta-Mom.

Why Be a Beta-Mom?

And now, for those of you who hung in here (or scrolled down) to see what Betta Fish and women have in common:

1) Betta Fish are amazingly diverse in appearance, but all are beautiful

2) Betta Fish are incredibly hardy, being able to survive in poor conditions. However, to thrive, they need the proper care and attention.

3) While two male Betta Fish left alone will almost certainly end up fighting and one will likely die, female Betta Fish can live together as long as each has a hiding place to “get away” from the others if it starts to feel intimidated.

4) 90% of the problems a Betta Fish may encounter is due to stress

Sounds like a lot of the women I know, including me!
