Check out our part 2 podcast interview about our research on intensive mothering! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/imp…

Partly outside of motherhood but related and similar! mcsweeneys.net/articles/reaso…

Happy Mother’s Day! Moms, take today for you. And for the other 364 days of the year, take parts of each day for you too. “Selfless” is a socialized, glorified, & problematic narrative moms are expected to fit (causing physical/emotional issues). Take back mothering to fit you.

Are we surprised by this? Nope. We really need to change the intensive mothering culture so moms don’t get so burned out and overwhelmed. This is not okay...

This is troubling...there’s lots of reasons why a woman may find herself depressed but in our studies we’ve found that intensive mothering culture itself is likely a contributing factor. We need to shift the entire narrative of motherhood. sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/…

This packet came in the mail-offers exclusively for MOM. An easy way to buy kids clothes, a service to save time buying groceries, luggage to do all the packing for next trip, nonstick pots & pans for all the cooking you do. Whats the message when it says “deals for MOM” Come on!

This. It’s like people don’t get it. . .

A colleague of ours is looking for participants for her study. Might you help? MOMS NEEDED FOR RESEARCH STUDY Are you a breadwinner mom who earns the majority or all of your household income? Have you worked remotely & facilitated remote schooling during the Covid-19 pandemic?

bell hooks was responsible for creating a form of feminism that was more inclusive for all women especially regarding race and class. We are forever grateful for her work. We consider her work as we investigate intensive mothering. Rest in power, bell.

Intensive mothering expectations on full display at Einstein Bros. Bagels. Why wouldn’t a father be proud of their child cleaning up after themselves?

Intensive mothering expectations on full display at Red Robin - aren’t dads also interested in clean hands?

Loving this post from an old friend!

100%! #intensivemothering

Is anyone else tired of society’s bullshit?

Yes, Scary Mommy!

Yeah, because moms are the only ones responsible for cleaning up after everyone…😤 Rudy's Country Store and Bar-B-Q #intensivemothering #motherhood #dadsareparentstoo #mothersmentalhealth
