Show Notes

Welcome to Episode 5 of the Jen and Julie Podcast!
 
The conversation begins with a discussion of the "good mom" stereotype - the image of the selfless, nurturing, and always-put-together mother who is able to juggle the demands of parenting with a successful career and a perfect home life. Jen and Julie both admit to feeling pressure to live up to this ideal, and discuss how it can be damaging to both mothers and their families.The discussion then turns to the ways in which parenting expectations have changed over the years. Jen and Julie talk about how mothers in past generations were often expected to stay at home and be the primary caregiver, while fathers were expected to work outside of the home and provide for the family.
