"Then let me ask you, what do your children see as they grow up?" I didn't wait for them to reply as I continued.
"They see their mothers living like slaves when they have the ability to flourish. They see cowardice veiled as submission and they grow up believing that life should be like that. When the girls find their mates in the future, even if they are treated like crap, they will endure, because that is what they saw their mothers do. When boys find their mates, they will follow the tradition of the pack and treat them like garbage, because that's how they saw their mothers get treated and they tolerated it. The life you are living now is just a prelude to the one your children will live. So, is that what you want?" I feel like slapping these women when I think about how blessed they are and they are wasting away that blessing.
They have freedom. They can choose freedom, yet they choose slavery. Even though it is more slavery of the mind, it is still slavery.
