Why Women and Mothers Need to be Politically Aware

Your children, God-willing, should outlive you. Prepare them for the world to come.

I understand many women have no interest in politics because it’s not all that entertaining, and it doesn’t seem relevant to most women’s lives. However, if you aim to be a wife and mother, I would encourage you to get educated because your children will eventually have to navigate a world without your guidance and need to be prepared for it.

While having a narrow lens and having family be your sole focus as a matriarch is helpful, it is also essential to be privy to the world's ways. I recently decided to reduce unnecessary interactions outside of my family and close friends, which has brought me immense peace and contentment. I wish I had done it sooner, but I felt some ridiculous obligation to “the world.” I was inspired by a friend, a devoted mother and wife, who maintains a small but fulfilling social circle. She radiates tranquility with a zest for life, and her example empowered me to do the same. This can serve as a powerful testimony to other women, highlighting the influence of peer-to-peer connections.

Coincidentally, as I downsized my interactions, the world witnessed an actual¹ war. This reminded me of my job: to ensure the survivability of my offspring. Evolutionary fitness is not just measured by the number of pregnancies or children a woman has, but also if those offspring are resilient enough to survive their environment after birth.

While some may be uncomfortable with the notion of comparing human life to Darwinian theory, it has helped me focus on my priorities and may assist other women as well.

To my readers, I ask:

• What are your three most important roles in life?

• In what order and why?

• What are the criteria for success in fulfilling those roles?

In a Western culture in decline with an increasing push for globalization, are you aware of the threats to your children? Are you educated on where these ideologies stem from and why? Do you have the capacity to combat bad ideas with better ideas?

It’s just food for thought. I can lay out some examples below:

• It is helpful for a mother to be educated on Marxism and Communism and the signs of their implementation because both political and economic theories pose a danger to her offspring if they are successful in becoming primary governance in the West.

• It is helpful for a mother to be educated on the military-industrial complex, especially if she is a boy-mom because males are considered the expendable sex and always carry the weight of conscription.

• It is helpful for a mother to be educated on the possibility of their daughters opting not to be mothers or wives for reasons of culture, ideology, and economy and consider how to meet anti-natalist propaganda best for them.

There are numerous questions to contemplate in 2023, and I hope all mothers take the time to consider these scenarios without overwhelming themselves.

The goal is to prepare your children, not to drive yourself to madness.

Comment some answers to the questions listed above! I would love to hear your responses!

1. It is interesting how I have seen more war footage in the past week than the entire time the Ukraine conflict has gone on.
