It’s very weird to see y’all dunk on teachers, social workers, therapists, etc when they say they can’t survive on their salary, telling them they should’ve picked a more lucrative career but in the same breath say “we need more teachers! we need more therapists!”
At 4 weeks postpartum I was: sleeping 3 *nonconsecutive* hours a night; breastfeeding every 2 hours for at least 30 min a session, so about 6 hours a day; and bleeding through everything I wore. If men did this, the whole fucking world would be structured around parental leave.
