nitpicking how women choose to do motherhood.

They tell women that they've hit the wall and there's no hope for them.

Once they've hit 30, they preach about supporting moms and how that needs to be our top priority.

And then, spoiler alert, a lot of those companies barely offer maternity leave.

Some of them even fire women for being pregnant.

So maybe those folks should sit this conversation out.

No wonder so many modern moms feel lonely.

I mean, let's just like take stock at where we're at.

You stay at home full time, half the country says you're oppressing your brainwash.

If you use daycare so you can work or you get a nanny, then you're abandoning your kids.

If you struggle with motherhood and postpartum, you should've known better, just toughen up.

If you embrace motherhood joyfully, then you are a handmaiden.

I mean, everybody is yelling at you like, that's just 2026 in a nutshell.

Maybe, maybe, maybe it's not black and white.

And maybe we should have some damn empathy.

Maybe we should realize that every family, every mother, every baby

is different.

Maybe across the board, regardless of politics, we should do a better job of supporting families.

Maybe we should do a better job of telling people not to compromise their values when finding a spouse.

I mean, we've talked a lot about moms, almost exclusively moms, in this episode, but what about the dads in this situation?
