When we think of moms as default parents and dads as babysitters, everybody loses. And yet, the norm remains. When dads meet up for a golf day, no one asks who’s watching the kids. But when moms manage to leave the house without little ones in tow, it’s a question we hear constantly.
In this episode, we talk about:
• How we got here
• How sick of moms and dads BOTH are of this double standard
• Why it’s a problem for parents of all gender identities and sexualities
• Institutional changes we desperately need to better support all parents
This conversation is so important, and it’s also just the beginning. Today, we’re telling our own stories and talking about desperately needed social changes to better support parents.
Then be sure to join us for the next two episodes, where we’re talking with New York Time Bestselling Author Eve Rodsky about active steps we can take in our homes today to make all of our lives better, happier, and more equitable.
