Happy M/Other's Day

I wrote an essay for Out.com about what it is like to have given birth but not be a mother. Happy M/Other's Day everyone!

  1. Hi! Unfortunately the link in this post is broken; I went to the out.com website to find the essay, as I couldn't get to it by clicking the link.

    This is a great post! (I recently found your blog through PhD in Parenting and have enjoyed reading through your posts and have added you to my google reader.) I think your last point is particularly important; one can still be a mother if one hasn't given birth or breastfed, and conversely doing so doesn't make everyone a mother.
