'Your 'success' as a mother is not defined by domestic duties. Domestic duties are part of being an adult — and they are particularly onerous for moms with ADHD due to biology, not some personal failing.'
“Mom fail. I didn’t get the laundry done.”Your “success” as a mother is not defined by domestic duties. Domestic duties are part of being an adult — and they are particularly onerous forWhile your children do need to be changed and fed, that’s not the summation of MOTHERHOOD. Anyone can change and feed children, including dads. You can hire someone to clean your house and feed your kids, and you’ll still be a mom. You’re not a bad mom because you didn’t do laundry in time.
Yes, moms do domestic things. And they raise children. These are two separate things. Your housekeeping is not your motherhood, and you’re giving away power when you combine the two and judge one against the other. You are a good mom because you love your child, and you try to help them learn the things they need to learn. You worry about your kids, you spend time with them, you plan for their future, and so much more.
