That same month, their mother, Michelle, said she doesn’t want her daughters to feel pressure to get married and have children.
The former first lady shared her thoughts on modern motherhood and societal expectations placed on young women during an interview on The Tamron Hall Show.
“Too many young people rush to check off the marriage box before they even know who they are, and then they are surprised when they choose the wrong person, or they don’t know how to get through tough times,” explained them out. .
“I want my girls to spend some time with themselves to develop some skills to understand that they can get by with or without it, that they can build their happiness with all the bells and whistles and that they can be happy if they choose to be to concentrate only on their careers, never to have children. I want to make their world bigger for them.’
