Absolutely nothing about motherhood seems enjoyable and I hate when they try to convince you that it is the most fulfilling thing ever. I had a mother tell me she works as much as she can because she hates being with her kids.

I literally said I hate when they try to convince you and people are in my comments trying to be convincing… OH MY GOSH. NO. FUCK NO.

I think it’s a great option for some people esp if you adopt, but NOT being a mother is a FANTASTIC option for most people (including most of the people who are actively mothers) It’s incredibly fucked up that people try to convince others to have kids. Children deserve to be wanted by their parents. If someone’s not fully on-board, they shouldn’t do be a parent!! Accidents happen ofc, but try to avoid lol

It doesn’t rlly excuse the proselytizing, but I think the reason why so many people do it is bcos they have regrets about becoming parents and feel the need to justify their decisions. Someone who is content with their life dgaf how others choose to live their lives. On a more subconscious level, there’s also a lot of sexism involved. People rarely chastise childfree men…

I just want to clarify, I’m not trying to convince anyone to have kids. I read this post and saw it as an inability for OP to understand why motherhood can be fulfilling, I’m trying to give her my perspective. Somehow it became an attack on motherhood in general. I didn’t see it as trying to convince her that it’s the most fulfilling, because it’s not, just giving her a mother’s POV. Reading that a mother works to avoid her kids and making that sound like that’s general to all mothers irked me.
