Hey, Laura, there’s more important things in life than money.

ROFL!!! She(?) could easily switch places with Pajamaboy and nobody would really notice the difference.

Most women say Motherhood has been or is their most important job.

The question itself is an impossible test for women who have children: Which do you value more, your kids or your job? The trick is that there’s no right answer, so no matter what your response is you’re wrong.

"Which do you value more, your kids or your job" is an impossible test? If you aren't self-absorbed it is one of the simplest questions to answer.

She’s one mean ‘Mother’.

There are lots of things that the Lord will take people to task over, either in the forms of lost reward for saints or what will be learned when the books are opened for the lost, and treating parenthood as something other than a priority will be one of them.

How much money you made in your career or how far you advanced because you worked hard in your younger days won’t win you any awards.

[tnlibertarian]

Actually, she’s right. “Wife” is more important.

[stanne]

These people really do think the government is God.

I don’t need anyone but my God-given conscience to tell me what the most important job is.

Others rely on the president How silly

I’m really glad that my mom thought it was important. Working early bus duty this morning & it makes me so furious how many (these are K-3 kids) get off the bus w/ untied shoes, filthy clothes, girls who haven’t had a brush or comb thru their hair. It is shameful to send your child looking like that. And the others get off clean & neat as a pin.

OK, just have them say “my kids comes somewhere after second....”

They preach this song and dance to Caucasian audiences.

If it’s a Hispanic family, the mother figure is revered.

If it’s a Black family, the mother is revered.

This is simply another angle at eugenics.

Sadly, a lot of folks buy into this nonsense.

They’ve done their job well, these academics and their fellow travelers. Whites not side with BLM against themselves, or at least their long term interests.

Beats anything I’ve ever seen.

She’s married to a man and has a daughter named Zelda.

Might still be crazy, however.

Stop Telling Women Motherhood Is the Most Important Job, unless if you mention that Fatherhood is also.

BullS#it.

Raising WBill Jr. is the most important thing that either my lovely wife, or I, will ever do.

This article smacks of jealousy.

“This is from a woman who’s had at least one abortion. “

Bingo!

[wbill]

Ah. Explains a lot. Thanks for the pic.... I think.

[cymbeline]

“probably ranks right up there at the top”

A lot of the idiot liberals out there are the result of negligent parents.

[wbill]

I blame feminism for many of the ills of the world.

It goes hand in hand with liberalism.

[Sopater]

I always put “mother” as my occupation on forms.

It's the most noble of professions... one which I'm not qualified to hold. :-)

Your off by 25 years. I remember my mother having a cow when she heard this crap. She would say, “I raised 5 human beings. You pushed a lot of paper. How do you rate your life better than mine?”
