The mother of one explained that she doesn’t feel like cooking and that she isn’t ashamed of it.

The content creator shared her “lazy parenting confession” on social media.

As she unpacked her last order at McDonald’s, she said, “It’s no secret that I’m a lazy parent.

“I choose to do things the easy way.”

Liv admitted that this isn’t the first time she’s been to McDonald’s this week. She said: “We had one yesterday, we had one the day before, I think we had one the day before, I think this is our fourth McDonald’s in a row.

“I can’t cook, so I find it easier to order a McDonald’s than to have to prepare and cook food myself.”

Liv explained that, especially when her partner is away, she does things to make her life a little easier. She continued: “I am no longer ashamed to say that I am a lazy parent.

“I’m not ashamed to say that I’m going to do things that make my life easier, especially when my husband is not around.

“If I’m alone during the day, I’ll order a McDonald’s, yes, I’ll do that for days on end, until I start realizing that maybe I should cook after all.”

Wearing a comfortable dressing gown, the pink-haired woman claimed that she knows people may not agree with her lifestyle, but she doesn’t see the problem.

As she tucked into a portion of chips, she added: ‘I don’t think there’s anything wrong with taking the easy route, although a lot of people will probably have a very different opinion on that.

“I know I should definitely cook at some point, but can I put in the effort? No.

“It’s much easier to order McDonald’s for myself.
