I think that this myth was brought about by men and their mothers to keep women from feeling confidant about themselves. My ex constantly critisized evrything I did, from the house, weight gain to how i brought up the kids. (while he, spent every spare moment on the golf course). Not working and being financially dependent also seemed to give him the feeling of power. So i got a job and left. <br /><br />Who is perfect? Not me, not my Mum however she raised 3 hardworking adults who respect others. How boring is perfection anyway? I hope my kids make, mistakes then they will learn (i'll always be there to help)<br /><br />Let them work themselves into the ground being perfect, I have 4 kids who love me, even if the house is untidy, and i don't have organic soup bubbling away. No ones perfect and what they are hiding may be alot scarier than dirty dishes. Be who you are and stop trying to live up to unrealistic expectation.<br /><br />Great blog btw<br /><br />MelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834286162949291167.post-3454256898905267312010-02-21T08:56:01.912+11:002010-02-21T08:56:01.912+11:00Thank you for your post!
