I have an amusing story to share today.
Recently, I referred to myself as an individual who is often harping on people to do things, reminding them to address this task or that issue. I constantly have a to-do list.

It doesn’t matter how intelligent she is, or whether she’s capable of accomplishing great things. It doesn’t matter what kind of a successful career she wants. All that matters is making sure she becomes a mother — without delay.
That’s what I’m getting out of this article. It blows my mind.
Done? Good. Welcome back.
I hope you’re already foaming at the mouth with indignation.
They’ve got a pretty horrifying list: everything from her earning potential, her value as a homemaker, and, of course, insisting that she will regret it.
I’m rather dumbfounded that these are the excuses people are making to deprive their own daughters of an education — and the daughters of everyone in their religious community, too!
This article was designed for a trip to NYC. As someone who loves the occasional visit to New York, I’m finding it very useful.
