grief support group #23 πŸ’Œ on Something Very Bad is Going to Happen and marriage

listen to this week's grief support group on KSFS radio

Welcome to the πŸ’ŒπŸ’—GRIEF SUPPORT GROUPπŸͺ©πŸ’‼️. This is my radio show on KSFS Radio at San Francisco State where I talk all things pop culture, my research on grief and media, and answer your advice questions.

This week we had a very special guest: husband of GRIEF AND MEDIA Jack Molmud! We discuss our anniversary (on 4/20), Netflix’s Something Very Bad is Going to Happen and its themes of relationship dynamics and mortality, and answer the following advice questions:

β˜… I’m feeling really torn about marriage and kids. The more books I read written by women the more it’s clear that basically most women throughout history regret getting married and having kids (even if they won’t say the words β€œI regret it” everything always gets way harder on the woman). Also you lose both your first and last name (β€œmom”, traditionally taking man’s last name) so like how can anyone agree to losing your whole identity when millions of women that came before us are a testament to the fact that it is most often a permanent downgrade in quality of life? But that being said I love kids I think they’re fantastic and I’d love to have some of my own and I love my boyfriend and I do see β€œforever” with him. So I’m losing it!!!!!!!!!!!! Help
