Measuring the "good mom" - an American pastime
Ah, motherhood. The most powerful, romanticized, under-valued institution in Western culture, with a history and a mythology all its own. The scapegoat for individuals and societies to displace our greatest hopes, fears, and fantasies upon.
Along these lines, check out a new MSNBC story, "What's the real measure of a 'good mom'?: Judging mothers has turned into a popular American pastime, many say." (Nothing new in American discourse, but nevertheless seems to have been taken to new levels via new information technologies and a frantic cult of celebrity.)
Even more revealing than the story itself, check out the readers' discussion on MSNBC's message board.
