Former first lady Michelle Obama said in her newly-released Netflix documentary Becoming that having children was a concession that cost her aspirations and dreams.
Obama made the remarks while talking about her desire to become equal to her husband, President Barack Obama.
My relationship with Barack was all about our equal partnership, Obama recalled. If I was going to have a unique voice with this very opinionated man, I had to get myself up and set myself off to a place where I was going to be his equal.
However, the birth of their two daughters, Malia and Sasha, changed the course of the couples relationship.

For my wife and I, our children were our dream. At least for this life.
Although, at times, they’ve seemed more like a nightmare. LOL.
her job there was to keep patients with good insurance in the hospital, and to transfer patients with poorer insurance to other hospitals
Yup. She coulda been a contenduh. Lions, Bears? Big line backers are good to have. Guess the kids already knew they weren’t really wanted.
I loathe people like this. I truly can’t stand them.
That person is no more capable of giving birth than is my toaster oven.
They would have been the same,they both have the same handler.Michelle is telling everyone it’s her turn.The kids are raise.VP ahead.
Please no more Obamanations.
Yes. BUT. In order to ‘go places’ and enjoyed that high life the Obama’s been having, she had to be married to Buraq. And all those lofty high praises are attributed to him.
She wanted to have all that, in her own name.
The concession was the cost they had to pay for Mike and Obama’s kids
Not to mention a malignant narcissist.
I couldn’t disagree with her more.
Before my wife, before my kids, I was living, but unfocused. It was all about me. A narrow view. Then my wife came along and inspired me to have a wider view, think about the future beyond just me. And 4x kids came along and I simply can’t imagine my life without them, or her. My single mans dreams are gone, but they were pretty shallow. What I have now I never would have imagined embracing, but I can’t imagine letting it go now.
She’s of an age she should understand this and embrace it. That she doesn’t confirms my low opinion of her.
Or had to stop practicing law because other lack of ethics.
The dreams of leftist should be killed.
>>> Punished with a baby
Yes, the exact phrase I was looking for.
Why didn’t she just have aborted them? If abortions are good enough for her “black sisters” why weren’t they good enough for her?
Sooo,all you black women kill your babies or kill your dreams..You can’t have both.... Oh and after you kill your babies...GET STERILIZED.....
No dude I know...married to a Michell....calls "her" Michael. EVER!!!!
Hey, Michelle. Kids are fully grown now. Get your butt out there and fulfill your dreams. I don’t see any anchors in your a$$ pockets keeping your from your aspirations.
Answer one question, missy: What were your dreams and aspirations anyhow? You complain about giving them up because of your kids. Just tell us what was more important than raising your children? What did you plan to be before Malia? A Supreme Court justice? Mayor of Chicago? Hollywood actress? Corporate CEO? A novelist? Poet? TV anchor? What in the heck?
Oh, and never again enter a room with accomplished women who ALSO raised children without resenting them and hubby.
How could you be so astonishingly ungrateful for the opportunities for world travel, magazine covers, unending adulation by the press, a book deal (for a woman of no achievements), Netflix producer, an endless succession of lobster tails and Waygu steaks, and being the subject of a ridiculous documentary? Again, all this from a woman of no achievements whatever?
Sucks to be you. Because you will never be happy.
You don't stay in that kind of a "church" or even go there unless you like the message.
