I have a new favorite website that I wanted to share. It is www.mothersmovement.org . This website focuses on the socio-economic issues of the family and motherhood. The website delivers "resources and reporting for mothers and others who think about social change". My favorite quote from the site is below. It is a must read and must pass along resource!
“Contemporary family problems do not originate with the behavior of mothers, as is often claimed by the media and some scholars; rather, they originate with our failure to support the care taking work that mothers do, which remains virtually unrecognized in our social policies.”
– Demie Kurz
from Doing Parenting: Mothers, Care Work and Policy, 1997
