. StaceySolomon announces birth of her daughter:
I feel a real sense of pride in the people that my children have become. Even little things, like if I hear from someone that they’ve been polite or kind to someone else, they’re the moments where I feel like I’m doing something right. In parenthood in general, you’re constantly trying to do the best and you’re questioning yourself all the time, it’s never-ending so when they leave the house and go somewhere where they represent themselves and you hear that they’ve been good people.
I remember Zachary’s teacher ringing me up after they’d visited an old people's home and she rang me up and she told me he was so polite and he danced with the old ladies and he was really making them laugh. It’s the little things like that where you think, I could moan and moan at them all day for not putting their dishes in the dishwasher or picking up their clothes and questioning myself all day long and then you get a call like that and you think, everything is going to be all right.
I can rationalise but it doesn’t stop the thought for entering my mind. I’ve come to realise it’s clearly a natural part of my existence and I’m going to question myself and those thoughts are going to come into my head, the best thing I can do is feel them, hear them, brush them aside and move forwards. Accept that they are there and flip them on their head instead of saying ‘go away, why are you doing this’? Because then you’re just beating yourself up even more.
I think the same for men too. I look at my boys who have been raised on action men who have 12-pacs and muscles and I think you show these things to kids from when they’re four, it’s going to have damaging effects and it does give them a warped vision of what they should look like if they want to be strong or a hero and I think that’s been happening for too long. By showing people beauty in all different forms, not just this one ideal.Everything about motherhood in my opinion is a challenge.
I really do think there’s a place for women to come together, especially when they’ve just become a mum, to support each other. No matter how they want to do motherhood or how they decide to raise their child. There are plenty of people ready to tell you how to do things and how to do them better but not enough people saying, ‘let’s get behind each other.’
