““The expectation is that your identity will be completely consumed into
that of your child, if you’re a good mum,” Valenti says. “If you’re a
good mother, if you’re doing it right, you should have no identity
whatsoever, except for ‘so-and-so’s mum. … It does make me worried. I
don’t want my daughter being raised to think that the best thing she can
ever do is take care of another human being. I want her to know that
she can impact the world in other ways, too.””
