[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey if I spent 20 if my best years devoting my life to you when you were a boy and I'm now approaching my dotage, it is respectfully NOT MY JOB to compete with the younger model on being upbeat and fun for you now.

This is just how women get treated here. You bear the inequitable burden of raising your kids even if you work because of "the second shift", get paid inequitably in the workforce, make out poorly in the divorce, have a harder time remarrying because you are past your prime ... and now all of those things are "yours and no one else's" to deal with and move on from so why can't you just get over it and be more upbeat and fun like that younger stepmom?  And also, why aren't you making us breakfast?[/quote]

Some mothers are so adept at playing the victim card. Nobody forced you to have kids. You knew what you were signing up for. Plenty of childfree people are living with the advantages and consequences of making the opposite choice. [/quote]
