Being a mom is "what I do". But I've never thought it necessary or even possible to boil a person down to a one-word definition. I started going by "mom of many" when I first joined a parenting e-mail list back in 2001... I've kept the same username everywhere I go. Keeps things easy to remember.

What is your feeling regarding mac & cheese in one's screen name?

You're obviously subservient to Mac and Cheese. Please become your own person.

most average people off teh street have a very small chance of completing a PHD program. lots of average people raise kids all the time.

Because of opportunity. If people were given the same assistance in getting a PhD that they get when having children, it would be easier to compare and contrast. You don't have to apply to be a parent. You just have to not screw up enough to get kicked out of the club.

Well I'm a terrible mother so I would never tout that achievement.

Deep down inside we're all subservient to Mac and Cheese

All I can say is you will always be a mom, but you might not always be a wife.

When I became a mom, I did become someone else. I didn't lose my identity entirely, but I was not the person I was before my child, I am lots of things, but being a mom is my most important job and forever will be.

maybe for some low level social science degree but for degrees in science/math etc....an average person has little chance. but like i said before an average person has a much greater chance of being able to raise a child.

But is that really greater achievement if based on innate intelligence? Of course it's an achievement. It may make the person smarter. But the average person isn't going to land a magazine cover or have elite sports level abilities. Those people have gifts and have to put the effort in. A role that's more common and accessible doesn't make it less of an achievement. I know I worked for my education and career, but I know my friends that are parents work way harder than I did.

You really can't compare the achievement of being a PhD to being a mom.

Can't agree with that, unless of course you are not good at being a mom or dad. The average mom will put more blood, sweat, tears, pain, fear, time, and money into raising a child than someone will getting a PhD.

Agree to disagree. I'm not going to go into why getting a PhD is a greater achievement because I know I'll step on some feelings, especially in a mom abundant thread.

wow. SMH :laugh:
