It feels like the holiday season catches up with us faster and faster every year. Somehow, Christmas is getting close, leaving parents scrambling to figure out how to afford everything. Money is always a stress at Christmastime, and one mom has found a new way to make holiday magic.
The mom admitted that she’s started posting content on OnlyFans. Although she understands the stigma about what she does, this is the first year she can afford to give her kids the kind of Christmas she’s always wanted to. And that’s all that matters to her.

She's been using the income from OnlyFans as pocket money.
The Australian mom, using the alias Susan, spoke with the site Kidspot about how OnlyFans has made motherhood a little easier for her. She began creating content in January, only telling her husband and a few close friends about her decision.
“OnlyFans gives us a little bit of pocket money to help cover the kids’ swimming lessons … and having swimming lessons covered gives us some extra room to spend at Christmas,” she shared. “Having an additional source of income does give us a little extra cash to splurge. We usually feel the pinch a little more around this time of year but this year I’m not feeling so stretched.”
It's giving them the opportunity to create new holiday experiences.
Using what she and her husband refer to as their “pocket money,” the OnlyFans income is allowing them to do something different this holiday season: host their first Christmas get-together.
“Before this year, we didn’t feel we could afford the expense of hosting Christmas for our extended families. OnlyFans has given us the opportunity to share the day with our family in our home,” she shared.
Beyond the extra money, it's given the mom something else: confidence.
Susan shared that the extra income isn’t the sole perk of creating OnlyFans content. She said it has changed her life for the better in other ways.
“OnlyFans has helped me tackle loneliness, given me extra income, found friends, and given me so much more confidence in myself and my sexuality,” she said. “I strongly recommend it to women who are curious.”

Susan has faced a lot of judgment about her choice to be on OnlyFans.
Although she is definitely not the only mom on OnlyFans, Susan opened up about the judgment she’s faced from other moms about her choice. She shared that she received some choice comments in a Facebook group recently.
“I’m shocked that in this day and age I see a lot of negative comments about OnlyFans creators or other forms of sex work,” she said. “The Facebook post proved this, with other mums likening it to ‘selling your soul’ for example.”
She's not letting the stigma bother her.
Susan isn’t letting other people’s negative opinions about what she’s doing change the way she feels about herself and her choices. She’s seen the way OnlyFans has made her life better, including giving her extra money for the holidays.
“I’ve found a community that doesn’t judge me for loving sex and self-love. I may choose not to show my face but I feel very seen,” she said.
