[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We always hear how modern moms don’t have “a village” like in the past. What exactly is the village? What are we missing that past moms had?[/quote] In my parents situation, they had the church which allowed them friendships, a lot of time away from the kids - there were classes and we were allowed to hang out inside and outside of the church grounds, and bible study with a small group of people. Food was always prepared, music/hymns always sung and games were always played. It really was ideal for families in many ways. On the other hand, DH and I have 2 kids and never had a break. We spend so much time with our kids. [/quote]
