I’m not going to say anything smart alecky or snarky today. So many times we’ve seen mothers in Quiverfull dealing with overwhelming work loads just trying to do simple things like keep the laundry done and everyone fed. The reality for many in Quiverfull is that eventually the family needs overwhelm the mother and very bad things happen.

And everyone handles those breaking points differently. For NLQ founder Vyckie Garrison she discovered that what she believed was less that true for her, walking away from a marraige and church. Andrea Yates snapped and killed her children. Others develop chronic illnesses or have emotional breakdowns. Sometimes there is neglect of children and a tragedy happens.

No woman should be worked to exhaustion of this level.

This is a feature, a not of Quiverfull mothering.

No, this madness isn’t good for anyone, especially mothers.

This is also something that work a day America does better than the stay at home Quiverfull lifestyle. Long, long before you reach critical flame out you’d be called into your supervisor’s office and asked what was going on, and there would be a discussion on ways around the problem. True, some places would simply fire you the minute your productivity slipped, but people would notice and ask what was wrong.
