[quote=Anonymous]I find it kind of a weird concept that you can be a good mother even if you deliberately avoid learning about things related to raising kids. I'm not saying you have to be friends with other mothers or even go to PTA meetings but the OP says "I am not really interested in things related to raising children". That's like saying I'm a doctor but I'm not really interested in all that medical stuff, or I'm a lawyer but I'm not really interested in knowing the law. I think some women are really going way overboard as they try to disassociate themselves from traditional motherhood while also trying to cultivate an identity that is more acceptable to moms with careers and are leaning way too far into their personal preferences and interests at the expense of making sure their kids are getting what they need. It's selfish and indicates a very narrow perspective. [/quote]
