9781892123886: How to Avoid the Mommy Trap: A Roadmap for Sharing Parenting and Making it Work

Synopsis

Typically, when a woman gets pregnant, she considers whether to give up or cut back on her career, or surrender her child to daycare or a nanny. Now families have other alternatives. Fathers can stay home, work flexibly, go part-time, or help out so stay-at-home-mothers enjoy personal fulfillment too. Prepared women can choose the lives they want by following the common sense prescriptions in "How to Avoid the Mommy Trap." Julie Shields interviewed marital counselors, childcare workers, negotiation experts, employers, child development experts, and parents to find out how to create a family balance. How to Avoid the Mommy Trap emphasizes real-life solutions and strategies, and highlights common missteps. Weaving research and anecdote together, Julie Shields demonstrates the value and efficacy of a new parenting paradigm - sharing. This sensible primer is for every parent thinking about having children but wondering if and how to balance work, parenthood, and life.

Review

"When Shields started researching and writing her book "How to Avoid the Mommy Trap: A Roadmap for Sharing Parenting and Making It Work'' (Capital Books, $26.95), she found that one-third to one-half of new parents experience as much marital distress as couples in therapy for marital problems."
