Parenting

Regarding last weeks discussion in class, I had a few after thoughts on parenting. I found myself asking the question, do we think women have a desire to fulfill some sort of fantasy involving having and raising a girl? Is there an ideal or desire to have a beautiful daughter that a mother can dress up with and give them everything to be "beautiful" so they will grow up to be popular and have maybe the "ideal" childhood, all the while having a great relationship/friendship with their daughter and possibly viewed as a "cool" mom...? What is a cool mom anyways?? And how to we define a good parent? ...Definitely an intimidating job, in my opinion.
