Oh yea try raising children alone while also trying to find money to support both of you. Some people don't understand how hard it is to raise a kid. How many sleepless night you go through and how much responsibility and time it takes...
STILL A MOTHER. THERE ARE MOTHERS IN MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF SITUATIONS. AND EVEN IF THEY HAVE HELP IT'S STILL DIFFICULT. I DON'T HAVE TO THROW DIFFERENT SITUATIONS AT YOU FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S FUCKING HARD TO RAISE A KID. JESUS FUCK,
You were talking about raising a kid alone, and attributing those challenges with mothers in general. That's wrong.
Also, all caps make you look childish.
all caps make it seem like I'm yelling because I'm annoyed and tired of your ignorance. You're completely ignoring my point. Also, how is it wrong to point out all the mothers who have it worse? Does it make you feel uncomfortable or sad?
Let me tell you that if there was another parent, they would be working most of the day, so the parent that stays home with the kid is raising them on their own most of the time.
"all caps make it seem like I'm yelling"
No it doesn't. That's what exclamation points are for.
"You're completely ignoring my point."
Your point was that some moms have it hard. My point was that your point was irrelevant to the picture, as it's talking about moms in general.
"Also, how is it wrong to point out all the mothers who have it worse?"
I meant wrong as in "incorrect", and only in the current context.
"Does it make you feel uncomfortable or sad? "
No.
"Let me tell you that if there was another parent, they would be working most of the day, so the parent that stays home with the kid is raising them on their own most of the time."
I'm not sure what this has to do with anything, but yeah, sure.
Reading this made me facepalm.
1. I hate using exclamation points
2. All moms have it hard. Kindly remember how moms bring kids into the world. So, moms "in general" have it hard too.
3. There's no need to ignore those women because they are moms too and shouldn't be ignored.
4. Good.
5. I meant that even if there is another parent, the mother still has to do most of the work, making it hard for her.
Do you get me now..?
1. That's retarded.
2. Yes, I should have said "Some Mom's have it harder than others". My bad.
3. Your first comment suggested that you thought the picture was talking about single Moms. This is incorrect. The picture is talking about Mom's in general, in which single Moms are outliers.
5. If what you mean is that motherhood is hard regardless of circumstance, then I agree.
1. Using the word retarded can and is offensive to many people.
2. *harder
3. *your, and no, I didn't think that, to make things clear.
5. And good. At least we agreed on something.
1. The number of people actually offended is relatively minimal, in my experience. Also, it *was* meant to insult your idea.
2. Fix'd
3. Fix'd, and that was really all I was saying. You just seemed to bring up single mothers for no real reason.
okay seriously can you just accept the fact that mothers struggle a lot and it's a hard job to do and it never ends. It's raising a little human, for fuck's sake. That's not the same thing a growing a fucking plant.
"can you just accept the fact that mothers struggle a lot and it's a hard job"
...Did you not read my second-to-last post? (not counting this one)
"it never ends."
I disagree. Once the child is of the age of majority your off the hook. Anything else is optional. Also, the child could die, or something.
you either worry about the child, or the child could maybe never leave your life. Also, if the child dies then that's horrible for the parent(s) because they have to live with the fact that they outlived their child.
"you either worry about the child, or the child could maybe never leave your life."
Or you forget about them and go to Barbados. There are more options than those two.
"Also, if the child dies then that's horrible for the parent(s) because they have to live with the fact that they outlived their child. "
That's irrelevant to the fact that the parent's job has ended.
It annoys me when men say that women complain about how hard their lives are.Maybe if we weren't objectified, ridiculed, and put down so much then we wouldn't complain.
"maybe" you'd quit complaining... but I doubt it... :) I'll go ahead and down vote my own comment for the flood of down votes that I am confident will ensue.
but you do get women who complain about how hard their lives are without ever having gone through that. I'm a girl myself- and I believe in equality for both sexes,
but in a lot of cases, people side with women more and more these days.
There is a case of a woman having sex with an underage teen, becoming pregnant, then finding him 5-10 years later after no contact and demanding he pay child support for the child she never told him about. And she won that court case despite the fact that he had been underage when the child was conceived and she had been over 16 and knew exactly what she was doing.
This is just one case. I am fully aware that women have suffered greatly throughout the years- but now it's starting to be taken advantage of because people don't want to be seen as sexist if they side with the man.
Every group complains about how they're "oppressed" or whatever. jews, blacks, whites, gays... everyone bitches and none of them will ever quit so yeah
I find it disrespectful to use other people's suffering as a 'get out of jail free card' just because you have the same colour skin or genetalia or religion. That and the majority can suffer just like a minority.
White people can complain about all the shit we get for things our ancestors did, and we can complain about all the people that claim racism against white people is impossible/not real.
It is the most difficult. Your entire being and behaviour is going to influence another human being and make them who they are. Your small choice or minor screw up can ruin a person's life. You have the responsibilities of a president without the financial support or hundreds of advisors paid big bucks to help you make decisions. There's a fine line of too much and too little and there's no way to know if you've crossed it until you do. Being a parent is the most difficult job. Show a little appreciation for those who take that thankless job and do it well.
being a president it hundreds of lives counting on you to guide them and create a new world. but I understand what you mean- the pressure must feel the same.
It's not the most difficult job at all. Otherwise how can so many people manage to do it? As well as the fact that men are never commended for being fathers (and before anyone asks I'm a female)
being a mother may be difficult- but you get something that many would consider to be better than money. Not to mention the fact that of course women bear the 9 months of pregnancy and birth, but the fathers also often take half of the responsibility unless the mother is single- once it's out of the womb it should be both's responsibility. It isn't the only job where every choice affects another human being, it isn't the only job that's 24/7 and it SHOULDN'T be a job you are forced into- you SHOULD be able to choose it- of course sadly this is not what happens 100% of the time, there are exceptions to all these examples- but being a mother is far from the most difficult job in the world- challenging yes, but possibly one of the most rewarding.
Maybe it's so difficult because it's not your own life you have to take care of but your child's. You basically have a whole other persons life in your hands, you shape them from birth, and not only that but you gotta keep yourself ok in the process. You mine coal your the one you gotta take care of, you leave at the end of the day and you retire in 30 years. You have a child your life is for them 24/7 all their life long........no holidays.......that's hard as hell.
Talk to a soldier who killed dozens for his country, lost many of his friends, and got crippled emotionally/physically. Tell him how hard mothers have it.
Mother /= Mother with some situation that causes them to have to take the entire burden if child rearing unto themselves
Also, all caps make you look childish.
