Women in Afghanistan, Africa, Iraq - war-torn countries with lack of electricity, no food, no clean water, barely any clothes - they are NOT crying about postpartum and killing their babies. They give birth in dirt huts. 5, 6, 7 kids. No epidural. No therapist. No nanny. No break. And they understand it's part of motherhood and life. They prepared themselves mentally. They embrace it. That is their purpose. This is why even in the West, you hardly hear about an immigrant mother killing her kids. Never. But who IS killing their kids? White women. With the BEST healthcare on earth. Successful and rich husbands. Supportive husbands who provided them a lovely home, best doctors, best hospitals, unlimited money, baby showers, maternity leave, Postmates, therapists. Those are the ones crying on TikTok about postpartum and then drowning their own children in the bathtub. Like, make it make sense. The most privileged women in the entire history of America women who have more comfort than queens had 100 years ago - are the ones crying the loudest about postpartum?
