Her post has been shared more than 13,000 times.

King told \"Good Morning America\" the post has resonated with so many because \"we see ourselves in Alee [Zering]. We have most likely debated each topic she spoke on and have heard the mixed views from others. We have all seen or experienced some sort of 'mom-bullying,' many times on social media, so it is nice to see such encouraging and refreshing words from another mom for a change.\"

When she first saw Zering's words, King told \"GMA\" she \"saw myself in each sentence.\" Her quote, King said, \"reminds everyone that we are doing the best we can, there is no 'right way,' and there is no need to worry about the opinions of others.\"
