[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone going to flame you OP because what you're saying doesn't match the saintly mother myth hat society crams down our throats. It's okay to think life wih kids sucks. It's okay to say you're unhappy. You don't have to fake like everything is perfect. [b]Society dictates that having children is the only thing that can truly fulfill a woman.[/b] Of course we know that's wrong.[/quote]

Society doesn't dictate this. Pretty much everything in our society, from career fulfillment to leisure time, is set up for the enjoyment of the childless.

I think you're confusing the biological urge to procreate plus women who have unrealistic expectations (want children but don't understand what parenting entails) with society. What we agree on is that it's okay to think life with kids sucks, but OP should do something about it -- get counseling, give up her kids for adoption, etc., not just suffer for the rest of her life.[/quote]

Wrong. The nuclear family and woman-as-mother is very much the default societal standard.[/quote]
