Interesting article on Golden Uterus Complex
I found this in a response to another blog. Can't remember who posted it, but whoever you are thanks! It's absolutely brilliant and shouldn't be missed.

Here's some interesting points:
10. Once the GU gives birth, her “job” is done. “GUs believe that simply birthing a child is all they’re responsible for as a contribution to the parenting, raising and welfare of their child. From the moment the child emerges from her hallowed trough, it is solely on the father to provide all for both her and the child”
12. The GU uses motherhood as an excuse. “Becoming a ‘mother’ is the GU’s excuse for EVERYTHING. She can’t work because ‘mothers don’t work.’ My husband HAS to give her all of his money because she’s the mother of his ONLY child. She lost all identity as a woman and used becoming a mother as her free ride in life” (anonymous source).
Even after their children are in school full-time, GUs still use the kids and being a mother as an excuse not to work outside the home and often not to work inside the home. “You have no idea how stressful it is being a mom.” Um, the kids are in school all day. What do you do with your time? “You always minimize all the hard work I do. YOU HAVE NO IDEA.” Um, the breakfast dishes are still in the sink when I get home from work in the evening. The laundry is piled up and the kids haven’t done their homework. What did you do all day? “HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT ME. I’m THE MOTHER OF YOUR CHILDREN!”

OH yes... this hits the nail
OH yes... this hits the nail right on the head!!
Yep. That sums it up. What
Yep. That sums it up. What gets me is that in my situation, the worst BM of the two does NOTHING for her child (he lives in our home), yet she would flip the hell out if DH so much as needed to skip one weekend visitation while the child lived with her. She even sued DH for more child support every chance she got. Now that he lives with us (and is actually excelling, growing, healthy, etc...), guess how much she pays in child support?
You guessed it... NADA!
Ya, DH paid BM over $50,000
Ya, DH paid BM over $50,000 in CS in less than 3 years. We've had custody of the skids for 3 years now and she's paid us ZERO.
LOVE it, thanks for posting!
