That was my initial reaction to the “motherhood” photoshoot French Vogue did in its current issue which seeks to explore the “wackiness” and “humor” of motherhood…or something like that… 

 

The explanation for this shoot doesn’t make a teaspoon of sense.

My official response that I originally wrote on Facebook:

I fully respect any woman who doesn’t want to have kids. Kids aren’t accessories to put in the closet, so if you don’t have the desire to put in the hard work it takes to raise a decent human being, then PLEASE refrain from procreating. 

However.

What pissed me off was the sheer disrespect shown by FV and its staff for children and motherhood that resulted in creating this poor excuse for a fashion spread that masks extreme narcissism as some sort of edgy statement. ugh.

Oh and by the way, glorifying child neglect and abuse isn’t entertaining or edgy either.
