(and of course the fawning and slightly creepy grandparents).

HEY!!!
I resemble that remark…

So attractive …. Not.

The don’t cook or make clothes. The state pays them a wage. Free healthcare is on tap.

They don’t even need to actually look after the brat as there’s pre-school, primary and finally secondary school (and of course the fawning and slightly creepy grandparents).

The coronavirus thing has had them complaining in the media. They have seen more of their child than ever before, and they don’t like it.

Because she enjoyed it. 90% of the struggle is in the attitude you bring to the job.

This is a statement of fact that I can 100% agree with.

I believe ONE OF my issues is with a lot of women and some supposed men caterwauling about the difficulties of “motherhood” and the redirecting of responsibility and accountability for their CHOICE in choosing to become pregnant, keeping the child, and in a lot of cases using the child(ren) as weapons of guilt to extort physical, financial, and emotional support from everyone else around them by declaring parenthood a REAL hardship, when in reality it isn’t unless YOU make really poor choices/decisions. Stop blaming others for the consequences of YOUR choices full stop.

If one treats or interprets marriage/relationships/parenting as a “job” one MUST fully understand ALL of the requirements and remuneration of those “jobs” and accept that “overtime” is a unpaid necessity not an option.
If one does not like the “job” one can always go find another “field” to work in.
I pay a cleaning lady that comes in 2 times a month to do upkeep cleaning. She has 3-4 clients homes to clean between Tuesday – Thursday every week, as well as taking care of her own home and family. She loves her job doing HOUSEWORK, then goes home and does it there.
I pay a cook that prepares 15 meals for me a month then delivers them to my home (mostly because I forget to eat sometimes, and only started this in March of this year). He has 100 “clients” and does this from home while being a stay at home dad caring for the home and children. Both he and his wife chose this option and it is working great for them.

My point is;
They dont bitch about the jobs the chose and are remunerated for.

You see, when you are mom, you are in charge. First thing pumpkin is going to do is start bossing everyone around. It’s her “you don’t know so your opinion doesn’t count” card. F~~~ dad, he’s an idiot. It’s a powerful sword to swing. But it has two edges. Now your decisions matter, and not just to you but to this helpless little child. What started as a fun “look at my and my mini me” suddenly has consequences. Screw up bad enough and your kid dies. And then you’ll be the most worthless bee in the hive. Can’t have that. The PRESSURE!!

Giving a toddler more responsibility than they can handle is a difficult job for the toddler. I wouldn’t say it’s the most difficult job in the world, but it sure seems to be the one that gets more women out over their skis than any other.

Some women have the personality for the job, some don’t. My ex didn’t. It was all a struggle for her and she took that struggle out on me. But her best friend was a natural. She loved being home being a mom and made it look easy. Because she enjoyed it. 90% of the struggle is in the attitude you bring to the job.

Motherhood – The act of giving birth?
You know, what women are built for and have done since the advent of humankind.
This is 2020 not 1920/1820/1720/20/-20. Giving birth, and the care and protection of the mother before/during/after giving birth has gotten progressively easier and safer with each new generation. It’s not like “every” woman is strapped to a plow, drops the kid in the field, and then immediately continues on pulling the plow while an older child cares for it. (Cue the Monty Python scene).

Motherhood – The act of raising a child to adulthood?
This hasn’t happened in the western world since the introduction of public education, public preschool, public daycare. The child is lucky to see its mother for more than a few hours a day after age 4, even less if the mother returns to work within weeks of giving birth or is employed outside of the home.

Motherhood – The act of staying in the home to care for the children/family and the home?
If you choose to be a stay at home mom, you chose this yourself and it is your chosen job. A rather easy job in my not so humble opinion (I raised my child alone, while being employed full time, and able to deploy on a moments notice, and still have my child cared for and my home taken care of when I needed “help” because I PAID FOR IT MYSELF.)
You are paid in the form of a furnished home, and everything else paid for by someone else and yet you have the unmitigated gall to bitch and complain and whine about how bad/hard your day was while you were in the comfort of your home, with someone else footing the bill?

Oh perhaps it is “Single” motherhood?
What part of regardless of the circumstances (unless the father died), she chose to be a single parent of her own volition, do people not understand.
What part of a woman determines when she gets pregnant and by whom, do people not understand. Your body your choice right?
What part of a woman doesn’t stay pregnant if she doesn’t want to be, is she going to place at the feet of others rather than owning her own choice? Your body your choice right?

If she is not employed and paying for everything with money she earned, she is not a single parent/mother because someone/something else is paying the bills.
Collecting welfare? Not a single mom, as the taxpayers are the other parent/partner
Collecting child support? Not a single mom, as the former parent/partner or even the stranger she named as the parent is subsidizing her.
Collecting Alimony/Palimony/Spousal support? Not a single mom, as the former parent/partner is subsidizing her.

Ladies, supposedly you are ALL Strong and Independent.
How about just proving it by getting shyte done on your own and shutting up about it like men do.

Theres a gal at work who was going nuts from self induced stress about her job, she had to take eight weeks off and see a psychologist and had to get the shrink’s ok to come back to work.

The pressure is just too much for them. Yet motherhood’s the hardest job. Any woman an flipping fall down and get pregnant. Yet motherhood’s the hardest job. Baby food is already ready to go from bottles, formula is ready to go from bottles, diapers are disposable, babies sleep for 18-20 hours a day, dvd players require one button push to play, dad is the wallet that pays the lion’s share of everything for her and the kids, and gave mom a bump up in her standard of living when he married her…yet motherhood’s the hardest job.

This just makes me want to avoid women even more. Just look at how whinny, demanding, threatening, stupid, angry they all are.

I would have a hard time picking the best Megadeth album, the two I listen to most are count down to extinction and youthanasia.
