So last night I had a conversation with my sister where she said she has a friend at work whose only aspiration is to be a mother and raise kids. My sister acted like there was something wrong with that being your primary goal in life: to raise a family. She plans on becoming a nurse as apparently it's far more fashionable for women to aspire to doctors, lawyers, and scientists than to aspire to be what biology and nature intended them to be all along: a mother.

Considering how the birthrate is dangerously low in the western world and especially Europe, I'm surprised that being a mother isn't looked upon with the respect it deserves. Having and raising is kids is not only a job, it is THE most important job anyone could possibly have. It's the most important thing you'll ever do in your life. I have immense respect for women who can without shame say plainly that all they want to do is raise a family and am surprised that more people don't feel the same way. Thoughts?
