Y'all do you know the static a mom with no job would get if an article about her wanting her husband to shut down his company & take over childcare ran right now? She's need a whole new identity
I have been a working mom for the majority of my adult life. People have always felt free to ask me who was with the kids while I traveled for work. The idea that their Daddy was there was still blowing minds in March when I went to NY. March. 2020. For kids who are 14 & 20
People ask me what they'll eat while I'm gone like every person in my house can't cook. I don't understand why people are acting brand new about that article, but that woman is in a terrible relationship & the devil in her house doesn't deserve sympathy
Motherhood doesn't have to be martyrdom. Marriage isn't a place to sacrifice yourself. I know people will insist that it's inescapable, but divorce laws exist and I promise you life is easier as a single parent than as one with human millstone around your neck
"But Mikki, you don't understand, what if he doesn't want to be a good partner or parent? I can't make him." You're right. You can't. But, this is why divorce attorneys exist. And let me tell you another secret, your kids can learn not to interrupt you 12 times & to do chores
But first, that whole grown adult that needs parenting to be a facsimile of a partner? Fire. Them. Give yourself that gift. My divorce was one of the best decisions I have ever made. And listen I love the Husbeast. But that love has a lot to do with him being a real partner
The idea that he would even want me to sacrifice my career is just so outside of our dynamic. But if he did? I can tell you I'd be single again. We paint divorce as failure, but honestly if that relationship doesn't work? Kids would rather be from broken homes than live in them.
