A woman has taken to social media to express her frustration over the responsibilities that come with motherhood, admitting that she sometimes misses the freedom she had before becoming a mother.

In a video, the woman said she occasionally longs for the period when she had no child and could go out, return whenever she wanted and make decisions without having to constantly consider another person.

She also spoke about the numerous responsibilities that come with raising a child, including the constant situations, demands and conversations that require her attention.

According to her, motherhood can sometimes leave her craving peace, quiet and personal space.

Her candid admission has sparked discussions online about the realities of motherhood, with some people noting that feeling overwhelmed does not necessarily mean a mother does not love her child.

The conversation has also highlighted the importance of allowing parents, especially mothers, to have time for themselves while balancing the demands of raising children.
