Being a mother is quite possibly one of the
most complex undertakings you will ever embark on.
Modern motherhood is riddled with
contradictions, confusion and above all clichés, the have it all generation,
the too posh to push, the ticking biological clock, the work life balance.
Women who have children can never be just
mothers, there must always be a qualifier. Stay at home mums, working mums,
full time mums (although show me a mother who is part time and I’ll show you a
pig with wings) Earth mothers, alpha mothers, pushy mothers, single mothers,
teenage mothers, geriatric mothers and of course the yummy mummies.
Society sees all these women going about
the business of raising children and, instead of delighting in the continuation
of the human race It seems to go out of its way to judge them.
