Having a Kid: No Big Feat?

Mothers weigh in on whether or not motherhood is the greatest accomplishment in their lives.

When we posted My Kid: Second Best Thing Ever, many of you had an opinion on the matter. One mom chimes in: "Just having kids is not an accomplishment at all - any idiot can get knocked up. It's how you raise them. Instilling a good sense of morals, teaching them to think for themselves and question everything-be inquisitive about life and its mysteries and to not accept things for face value or to believe every little thing they're told--if you can do that, I'd say that's an accomplishment." Another mom says: "After my son was born I made it my mini-mission to tell all my pregnant friends that they might NOT be happy and fulfilled and complete and serene when you get home. I think there's huge pressure to feel that way, or act like we feel that way."
