82. I'm a STRONG woman, and I AGREE with you
If you knew me, you'd know that I am very much a STRONG and INDEPENDENT woman...

But SOMETIMES, no matter your sex, as a PARENT, there is just too much on your plate to be able to "do it all". It doesn't matter if you have a penis or a vagina. It would be completely reasonable for ANY good family therapist to suggest to the PARENTS of a pregnant teen and special-needs infant, maybe you need to work a little less and focus on your family for the time being.

There's NOTHING weak about it... it's about having your priorities straight.

Don't let "them" tell you it's sexist to think it. If Obama had a pregnant teenager and a special-needs infant, I'd be saying the SAME thing. It's a reasonable concern.
