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

“Creating two people out of thin air”

When I, along with my wife, created our four children, I didn’t feel like the air was thin.

It’s interesting how the NY Magazine says that Ivanka is Trump’s stand-in for “women” when liberal rags and other outlets use Rosie O’Donnell as a stand-in for all women, by implying that Trump’s comments about her were really about “all women.”

Raising a child is as important a job for a parent as anything, but it is actually not a full-time job for most parents and it’s ok for them to have other major interests.

In my family it is!! And every other family I know....It's family first.

But not being a mother does not make you less.

I have friends who chose not to have children...or have never married...Their choice...

Motherhood IS the most important thing you can do well. Period. Abandon that and it only takes a generation to expose your folly.

And here we are...

If there’s no right answer then shut your stupid mouth or use it to do something useful for a change.

So they immediately change the meaning of the first premise of Ivanka’s message, and then proceed to go downhill from there. And the media is starting to wonder why no one trusts them any more.

But it is. That is reality.

The entire goal of any civilization, at it's roots, is to provide for pregnant women and small children.

Without that there is no future.

I am assuming the author of this piece, if old enough, voted twice for Bill Clinton. Maybe she should ask him what “job” he thinks is most important for women.

The Globalists hate it.

By declaring motherhood the most “important” job, we’re also forcing women to organize priceless parts of their lives by value.

Nonsense. Making a statement is not forcing anyone to do anything. Feminists have a real problem with free speech and always have. And more than just speech - the author might get a clue from her own life. She is free to behave otherwise and has. And is now complaining about being "forced" when she wasn't. This is simply stupid.

For the survival of the species, for the survival of society, it probably ranks right up there at the top.
