Comment on Question to Tiger (and all) Mothers: Why is leisure bad? by Adrienne

I love this Lynn. I feel like this debate also dovetails with this strange return of the 50s in terms of family gender dynamics–or maybe that’s just because I live in Boulder. Parents, and more often Moms, are so caught up in their kids “success” (as in performance not happiness) that they can’t give them any breathing room. The New York Times has had a ton of stories over the past year about slow-cooking, chicken raising, home schooling mothers who have shunned their careers for what they see as the more satisfying world of caring for their families. It’s a backlash against the 70s no doubt, and surely Alison’s and Sofia’s friends will not be raising chickens and driving carpools when they have kids if the cycle holds true.

Thanks for replying, Christof! I’m not surprised to hear how much you do. Clearly the “non-macho” guy is ideal, if we trust the polls!

Hi Lynn,
Nice post! Maybe I’m being too good to myself, but I’d say things are pretty even in our two-working parents’ household.

For example, this weekend (and this is pretty typical):
- I vacuumed the living room and the hallway stairs
- swept and mopped the kitchen and hallway floors
- did laundry
- cleaned the upstairs bathroom
- cooked one of the two weekend meals

As for media policing, I guess I’m the “mom” too, seeing as though it’s primarily my idea to ensure that Alina and Kyra consume only German-language videos, DVDs, etc., which I find online. Just not the most macho guy, i guess
