I’m the first woman in my bloodline who can do whatever she wants. The first one.

I asked my mum once why she won't divorce my father, she said:" what he's supposed to do then?"

I absolutely love that I grew up with my mom...even as a boomer, she left my dad when I was a baby, not because he was a bad guy...but because she wanted to live her life her way. She worked in the travel industry (usually either as a travel agent or with the airlines.) So she also toted me all over the globe...and she was also a very literate and artsy creative person who surrounded herself with a diverse group of open-minded friends and romantic partners. She never remarried...but had an incredibly full and adventurous life. Like...I'm not saying she topped the scales as a parent...but she WAS an incredible and interesting and intelligent woman. That's what I grew up with...I was so fortunate.

I am my own warning. Kids are no longer babies. I’m done being the maid, cook, planner, therapist, mommy wife, and also working. Planning my way out of something that never has served me.

My mom cared for everyone but herself and it broke her. While I admire her kindness, I vowed to never lose myself like that. And yet it happened. I'm at a crossroads in my life, and the path ahead is difficult, but I'm sticking to it. I hope to find myself again along that path.

my mother was a child bride at 16. had 3 kids. was miserable every day. one of my aunts married 3 times, was happiest when single. has 2 kids. happiness varies wildly. my other aunt is unmarried, childfree, and the happiest 65 yo i have ever known. our elder women can be warnings and they can be goals.

My mom worked so hard and it broke her, now she’s angry and old but still enmeshed in the patriarchy.

I'm the first female in my family who's never been abused by a man. The first to graduate from high school and college. The first who never had babies.

For me it’s my sons watching me. They choose not to be in quick relationships and get married or have kids because they know the fight.

Mine worked herself into the floor for everyone else and then died young. She's the reason I had the strength to upend my life when I realised I was walking the same road. I am really grateful and wish she could be here to learn how to live for herself with me.

I’m THAT mother- I’m 49, and have 4 phenomenal daughters- 3, of my 4 will probably never have children, because of the life I exposed them to—-

So true, but took a long time for me to see it for what it really is

I watched my mom being emotionally abused. And if I could go back in time I would snatch her away from it all. She deserved so much better

What if the mother has bought into the patriarchal system?

I am a mother to a son, he is the most important thing to me and that's why I also show him putting myself first, chasing my dreams and passions. I don't want him to grow up and expect a self sacrificing partner as the standard, I want him to love and respect a woman who loves herself the most.

My mom too and I wish she lived longer than she did so I could have shown more love and appreciation to her. I realize so much more as I get older and I wish I could have been smarter when I was younger

My mother was exploited by everybody, even by my older siblings. She was medicated for a long time so she was exploitable. She had multiple strokes I believe were caused by antidepressants. And she died in her 70s.
