No Longer Quivering
Remember several days ago when we posted a bit from Nancy Campbell’s Above Rubies by a lady that claimed that postpartum depression and baby blues were demonic instead of hormonal? Yes, that woman who loves to blame depression suffers for their own ailment. This lady also went on to claim in that say piece that your husband is always first, your children come in second.
Hm, let’s see. A grown person with fully functional abilities to take care of themselves versus tiny creatures who are born helpless. Nope, does not compute. While I’m not saying completely ignore your husband it’s ridiculous to say you must always put him first. It’s not even remotely possible when you have small children to make that happen. If he’s not mature enough to understand that for awhile you will need to prioritize the needs of the children over his then he has no business calling himself an adult.
Thinking like this is a recipe for burnout. Be all things to all folks without taking care of yourself.
Because husbands are adults? Babies are babies. This reads like something Larry from Biblical Gender Roles might write with the never say no to sex.
