Parenthood can be a soul exhausting experience.
Day in and day out diaper changing, cooking for picky palates, soothing, bed time management, and school shuttling can grate on any human. But stigmas regarding how much and what you can complain about pervade motherhood.
I hate being a mom and I don't like my kids. There I said it!
I happened upon the following women and their stories during my routine mommy discussion in Finland. They’re united in the feeling of being duped by parenting mythologies, or rather a “fairy tale,” according to one.
I knew having kids would be a big change but in no way did I know just how much so. I am so unhappy with what I have. There is no time for me anymore. I have lost myself. I used to be a person and now I feel like nothing.
The children suck the life out of us. Nobody tells you how awful it is. I see how my husband changed and not loving me anymore.
my kid: his forehead is a bit - might go for surgery
We used to not worry so much about money. We used to sleep in on weekends. We used to take care of our appearances and we used to enjoy life. Now we don't do any of that anymore. I am this cranky tired bitch all the time. I hate myself. I hate him. I hate my life. I hate my kids. I feel trapped.
this is my other kid
