Thanks. Those were interesting. Is it purplerabbits Alison who wrote them?
It occurred to me that her complaints in the second article about people demanding that she justify her choices sound a lot like some of the ongoing debates of parenthood - in particular the one about working mothers versus stay at home mothers, where people sometimes have difficulty accepting that other people can make other choices which are neither better nor worse, but simply different.
