Everything comes with it’s challenges. I love this article because it opens up a different narrative. The problem with constantly complaining that motherhood is hard makes it seem impossible and sometimes people say they want kids and they end up getting criticism of “oh it’s hard, you shouldn’t do it.” Which is ridiculous because they are telling someone who wants to be a mum not to have kids yet women who don’t want kids get judged and labelled selfish. What we really need in society is wannabe parents encouraged and wannabe not mums celebrated. I grew up with parents that were pushed into parenthood. One parent wanted me to fulfill their needs and the other parent didn’t really want me at all but got off on the praise of being a single dad. All I’m saying is support wannabe parents, they are aware of the challenges that come with parenthood and stop forcing other people who don’t want to be parents into parenthood. If we do this than more children will be loved and cherished and less children will end up in foster homes.
