Mom should be like this⁉️

Mom should be like this! "

Who decided that fucking rule?

Smile, perfection, self-sacrifice... even if it is said that it is natural to do it,

Because I'm human, I can't do anything impossible.

Even moms cry, get tired, and get sloppy.

That's normal. That's real.

Not a life bound by "should,"

You can choose how I want to be.

👉 and read it back when you say "I can't do it anymore!."

Let me know what number resonates with you the most in the comments saying, "I think this is shit!"

... Read more育児や家事で“ママはこうあるべき”という社会的プレッシャーは、意外に多くのママたちの心を重くしていると思います。私自身も以前は「いつも笑顔で」「完璧でなければ」と自分を追い込み、気づけば疲れ果てていました。 しかし、ある時気づいたのは「ママだって人間だ」という事実です。疲れる日もあれば、ズボラになる日だってあるし、それでいいんだと自分に許可を出すようになってから、心がとても軽くなりました。 また、自己犠牲的な考えに縛られると、子どもやパートナーとの関係にも悪影響を及ぼすことがあります。自分の気持ちを大切にし、無理しすぎずゆるやかに過ごすことで、家族みんなが笑顔になれるのだと感じています。 「こうあるべき」という枠にとらわれず、「私がどうありたいか」で選択する自由は、ママとしての生き方だけでなく、人生そのものを豊かにしてくれます。この考え方を周囲にも伝えていくことで、ママ同士がもっと楽に、そしてお互いを認め合える社会になったら素敵ですね。 疲れた時や、自分を責めてしまいそうな時にこの記事を保存して読み返してほしいです。あなたは一人じゃないし、完璧でなくても十分価値あるママです。
