Kids themselves are never the problem. The lack of community and support is.
I’m tired of culture blaming kids, telling us kids are universally a burden, not worth it, dream killers.
Kids don’t have any choice. They’re born helpless and completely innocent.
You’re not overwhelmed bc of your kid, you’re overwhelmed bc your mama heart needs better support from other adults ❤️🥲
I feel like the cultural narrative you're noticing is in response to the idea that having kids is the only way to have a meaningful, fulfilling life (especially for women.)
