Society thinks motherhood is a fairy-tale. Men expect women to pop out babies and raise them while they do nothing. That's why patriarchy-brainwashed mom thinks motherhood is a burden.



Is it by our power and might that we make it out of the labour room? Do we hold the power to form babies?



Motherhood should be glorified because childbirth is misery and a blessing. It is us, the society that overburden mothers with unrealistic expectations which make moms weary.



Your story describes the dilemma of a single mother. Why do fathers watch as their wives get exhausted raising their children? Why do mothers believe is their duty to give up their career for their children? Why do partnered mom's still raise their kids by themselves when they have a helping hand?



Motherhood is a job. Just like you get exhausted from your pay job, the same happens with parenting. But because there is no monetary value attached to it, most women see motherhood as an inconvenience.



Marriage is an inconvenience. Relationships are inconveniences. Yet, we only feel torn with inconveniences of motherhood.



I'm not saying motherhood is easy. But if you (mothers) see motherhood as a job like your paying jobs, and your husbands are as committed as you are in raising your children, then you will know motherhood is a joy.
