Motherhood
What do mothers wish someone had told them?
Mothers on Women Rising America talk about raising children differently than they were raised — being told to be seen and not heard, never being allowed to say no, and choosing to say "I love you" out loud every single day instead. They name the invisible labor of staying home, the feeling of being touched out, and what it takes to let a boy be sensitive.
One question. Many women.
