Elizabeth is on a blogging hiatus, so I was late to see her post about about the myths about women who stay at home with their kids. She writes,
The Washington Post has a front page story today that highlights the new Census findings
that "stay-at-home moms" are typically younger and in less affluent
families. Thus, the media obsession with highly compensated
professional women who drop out of the workforce to be full-time
parents is "largely beside the point."Except that, this isn't such a new point. I pointed it out — based on Census data — oh, about four years ago.
Media people, please read the blogs. And stop writing articles about Pilates moms.
