I copied this out of the Sydney Herald awhile back...A woman's reaction when an old friend begins complaining about the relevance deprivation she now feels as a mum:
“What are you talking about?" I half-screamed, gesturing wildly to the angel in the pram. "Look! Look! You’re raising a child. That’s the most relevant thing a human being can do! When did that get downgraded? I know there are chores involved in being a mother, but motherhood isn’t a chore, is it? It’s the single most important thing a person can do. Without it, no civilisation ."
