NTM 457: Who has it harder when it comes to motherhood? Older generations, or us?
Manage episode 409199429 series 3487724
The struggles are different, but are they harder? In the generations gone by, where women were relegated to ‘home duties’, there was a confinement, but also a simplicity. Today, there’s privilege, and also struggle as a result of that privilege.
In this conversation we open up some key points for you to consider as you wrestle with this question.
In this episode we discuss:
- Was the intense overwhelm always the case? Or are we becoming ‘too soft’?
- There’s a burden of responsibility when we know more about child and human development
- Nowadays kids tend to have bigger behaviours because of unprecedented sensory overload on the nervous system
- The cultural blaming of mothers
- Patriarchial mothering systems creating mental & physical load-hoarding
- Worldview comparison creating struggle to be in the life you’ve created
- Nuclear functioning of the family unit
- Recognising the privilege in thriving vs surviving
