If so, you are a perfectly normal stressed-out woman. These days women still do most of the cooking, cleaning, laundry, and volunteer work. We bear the children and in most cases have primary responsibility for raising them. Mothers chauffeur and bake for school parties.
Wives act as partner and social hostess for husbands.
Single mothers cope alone with finances, family schedules, crises, homemaking, and full-time work. For Christian women the problem can be even more acute. We try to be cheerful givers who joyfully present our bodies as living sacrifices. Because most of us have, to one extent or another, believed the myth that we are supposed to be superwomen, our weariness is intensified by guilt. Because not one of them felt that she was doing enough.
