Oprah's const...Oh God I am so right there with you. Oprah's constant bleating about motherhood being the most important job in the world makes me want to reach through the TV and choke her. What about those for whom motherhood doesn't come easy, or those for whom being non-mothers is not through choice or lack of trying? Does that mean we non-mothers, despite busting our guts to become mothers, are relegated to an inferior position to mothers just because we can't do it?<BR/><BR/>Did you see the one with the woman who was so busy and stressed she left her baby in the car while at work for 8 hours and came back and baby had died from basically being cooked alive? And she had her on the show as a warning to other mothers to beware of your stress levels, because motherhood is such a feaking stressful amazing job it can potentially make "normal" women cook their babies in their car.<BR/><BR/>That woman should be in jail, but no, she's on Oprah getting support for making a "mistake". Ugh. Think I have to go write my own blog post about this.Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12440410941421367469noreply@blogger.com
