Happy Mother’s Day! Here’s a piece I just wrote in response to some of the reader comments about Joan and my posts on www.HuffingtonPost.com. Yes, I’m venting a bit.
A woman can’t open her mouth these days about motherhood issues without getting called cutely naïve or politically incorrect. It drives me nuts.
In 1996 I became a mother. I was the first in my group of friends to do so, and was getting an up close and personal lesson about the economic and time crunch that comes with such a leap. I started wondering, how do other moms patch together caring for family and work? What’s really going on with mothers right now?
