[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Women and couples never really thought they had a choice in previous generations. It was just done. Plus, there wasn't the visibility of how difficult it is to have and raise children back in the day. Now, we all have a front row seat through social media to what a sh*t show it can be. [/quote] I think it was a lot less difficult “back in the day”. We’ve built it up to be way more crushing and consuming than necessary, with all the gear and the classes and the sports and the grades and the diagnoses and the camps and the perfect holiday card photos, and then we return to the very same platforms that convinced us we needed all these things to complain about how difficult it is. If everyone’s really making their major life decisions based on what they see on social media—good or bad—they’re in for a rude awakening. That’s not real life, ever.[/quote]
