I hate it.  Why is this a food?

although I would eat this kind I guess...if I didn't have to wear the hat.

Roasted ham with mustard sauce is where it is at!

But they could decide to make all ham into bacon and I probably wouldn't mind at all.

When I was in high school I was taught that ham is translated to prosciutto. But from clues here and there I guess it's not accurate.

Ham is more like a roast, in Anglo-Saxon countries. It's what I would call "Kochschinken" (boiled and cured ham) in German. Prosciutto is more like bacon, but not really. Wiki explains it better than I can: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ham

It is (according to wiki).

Prosciutto cotto is what I picture when I think of ham. I didn't grow up around an abundance of dry cure ham (which is probably what you think of).

      You weren’t ready for college….. that’s why you dropped out.

      You weren’t ready for that new job…. So you were fired.

      You weren’t ready to potty train… so you gave up after a week.

      You weren’t ready to homeschool….. so your kids fell behind.

      You weren’t ready to buy that house…. So you were denied a loan. 
       

      Does she not realize that when you aren’t ready, things can fail spectacularly? I try very hard not to place expectations on my kids that they can’t handle. They aren’t ready for algebra. So I’m not going to force them to learn it. Her thinking is completely flawed. 

      Exactly! There are way more instances where "no, you're not actually ready" is the appropriate response.

      Here's the thing. "You're never going to be ready so you might as well do it now" can actually be good advice - in very specific situations! But overall as a general post for your broader audience? That's horrible advice! It's also profoundly tone deaf and painfully unaware of her own immense privilege. It's easy to have kids & to start your own business from scratch when "from scratch" is having access to hundreds of thousands of dollars!

      And an endorsement from America's favorite fake historian:

      This is horrible advice. There are absolutely times in your life when you are more ready to have a baby than others. I had my first at 30 and I can tell you I was about a million times more ready than when I was 18. Would she say the same for a 12 year old who was pregnant from rape? Probably. She’s that ridiculous.
