[reddit] German Mother’s Heartbreaking Confession: The Relentless Judgment She Faces Daily
Original Article : I regret becoming a mother.
A mother shares her emotional struggle with constant judgment and unsolicited advice since her child’s birth. She loves her nearly two-year-old daughter deeply but feels overwhelmed by critical comments and disrespect from strangers and family members. She describes specific incidents where people criticize her parenting choices, public behavior, work schedule, and household management. These experiences make her feel like a second-class citizen. She asks the reddit community for advice on developing thicker skin and wonders if the judgments will stop once her child is grown. Supportive comments from the community give her some comfort and strength, but she still seeks practical advice to cope with ongoing criticism.
