I am a working, divorced mother of 3.
I am so thankful that i was able to stay home with my kids for 8+ years. I truely do not understand the world today. We do not even have families anymore. People give birth, take a few months to nurse them, then drop them in the hands of someone to raise them till we send them off to school.
As many have already said in this topic, woman are now expected to work out of the home as well as look after all the same old duties within.
The frozen food industry thrives! And still we strive to nourish our families properly after a full day of work its hard to do. Nevermind the emotional nourishment we are failing to fully give as we cant even feed ourselves. Its a race against time.
I feel everyone needs to just slow down and remember where it is we are striving achieve. Our children watch as we destroy the earth, and we as parents just continue with our set agendas, day in and day out. These kids have thier eyes open wider than we do and understand the crisis of the world. Each day they are bombarded with such incredible amounts of information, that its seems they would need even more devotion and time from us then that of generations past.
But alas, we hold our blinders tight to our heads and push forward on... towards ... something.
I do not mean to be negative, nor put anyone down. I know first hand the effects of circumstance. I only wish to remind you all to make the most of this holiday season and to step back and reflect on your true goals as parents.
Thank you to all that shared organization techniques, time is becoming as precious a commodity as water now adays. Have a wonderful Christmas.
