The girls of 1980s are unique and totally different from the generation of their parents. When they are pregnant, they become as precious as the pandas in their family. They are very effeminate. Every time they go to hospitals for prenatal check-up, they are accompanied by their husbands, parents and parents in law who are like escorts. When giving birth to their babies,their "escorts" are waiting outside the delivery room impatiently. This period might be the happiest time for them because they needn't do anything and are taken good care of. No matter what they want, their parents and husbands will do their best to buy for them. However, after giving birth, their lives are changed. They are not the pandas of their families. Instead, their babies become the pandas. In order to have a healthy grand son or grand daughter, their parents (in law) just order them to feed their grand son (daughter) well. When the babies cry, their parents urges them to feed the babies. If they don't have enough milk, their parents will try their best to let them eat nutriments no matter they want or not. If they don't, their parents will blame them and say they don't care about their babies. In their parents' eyes, they are cows. Their prior responsibility is to feed their babies well. On the other hand, they sometimes have disputes with their parents (in law). You see, their parents insist that they should do as they say to look after the babies. However, those moms of 1980s have their own idea of how to look after their babies. Sometimes, they quarrel with their parents (in law) on how to look after their babies. Here is an example: Yi Ling's mother in law tell her to feed much salt to her baby because eating enough salt can make her baby stronger in the future. However, Yi Ling learned from a book that eating much salt is bad for the baby's kidney. She told her mother-in-law about this but she didn't believe it and insists that Yi Ling should feed her baby much salt. So they quarrelled. You see, to be a mother is not easy. Those mothers of 1980s complain that their babies have stolen their love and care that should belong to them. Some even say that they hate their babies. 1/3 of the mothers of 1980s are said to suffer from postnatal depression. Maybe, those parents (in law) and husbands should think about this question carefully: who make those mothers suffer from postnatal depression? Can they do something for them? From a panda to a cow.
