[quote=Anonymous]Motherhood is a scam—100%. WEIRD nations have turned it in one of the many flavors of consumer culture. Human beings did not evolve in nuclear families where parents are expected to entertain their kids all day or enroll them in expensive activities. This is a creation of neoliberal ideology. Paris Paloma’s song Labour sums it up: All day, every day Therapist, mother, maid….. I take a lot of walks. And I love my kids. But they need to learn to entertain themselves. I am not their personal assistant. Can’t wait to read! I’m #3 on the holds list. And now I’m going to get off the internet (stewing is also not helpful) and go read a book! [/quote]
