Sorry to quote my own post but I’m not allowed to edit it“the things we do for them” 1. Is SO patronizing! 2. Something she’s parroting. I don’t know anyone our age who says that. That’s an old person saying or someone who isn’t comfortable in the role.
"The things we do for them"
Melanie, Do you mean basic care needs such as feeding, shelter, clothing and medical care...the basic stuff every mother knows is part of raising a child.
Guess I'm confused on which parts of your child's most basic care needs, you feel you deserve an accolade for? (the child you wanted to bring into the world)
