A 40-year-old working mom of two just said what a lot of women are quietly thinking after years in the corporate grind:
“I fell for it. Go to college, get the degree, you can have it all — career, kids, the whole thing.
I don’t want to do it all anymore.
I want to take my kids to school, pick them up, be there when they get home, chaperone field trips, volunteer, go to the gym, clean the house, do laundry, cook dinner… just be home.”
She’s blunt: “It’s not worth it. Don’t fall for that sh... Find a way to be with your family.”
It’s raw, honest, and hits different when you hear it from someone who’s lived both sides.
Moms (and dads) — have you ever reached that point where the “have it all” dream started feeling like a trap?
What would your ideal balance actually look like if money or societal pressure wasn’t part of the equation?

The performance was rooted in Black American Culture. If you have no idea what that is then the performance went over your head. Notice that Real Black Americans fully understood what was going on. While Foreigners & Others had no clue about what was going on LOL!
Over 100 Black Communities were destroyed in America..
We’re natural builders , innovators and entrepreneurs.
But the jealousy and envy of this country has never wanted us to thrive without them.
The truth is we never needed them they’ve always needed us.
