I WANT TO READ YOUR ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS DOWN BELOW! Even if you don't have kids. We are each entitled to our own opinion and all I'm doing today is sharing my opinions, what I do, what works for my family...but of COURSE you're allowed to disagree with me. You'll have your own opinion/what works for you and your setup/kids, and we can exist together in disagreement, without judgment. I've realised recently that us mothers really do need to talk about all of this stuff more, *especially* with other parents ... so I want the comment section to be a safe space for people to share thoughts, opinions, wisdom, references to studies, experiences, etc and please refrain from judging other parents for their morals etc in replies to each other. It's fine to disagree but we can do that from a place of compassion and understanding that we're all different, our lives have been different our situations are different and our desires for motherhood/parenthood will be DIFFERENT. This sort-of stuff is really interesting to new parents I feel (it is to me, anyway) I LOVEEE hearing how other people go about this stuff and about what others think. It's informed so much of my parenting. I'm not always right as I'll share today and I'm not saying my feelings on some of these things won't change and evolve over time. But yeah. CHAT TO MEEEEEEEEE motherhood can be so ISOLATINGGG! xxx
