Equity does not exist in households where women make more!

Mom with kids on vacation "Female breadwinners face a much higher risk for burnout, infidelity, and divorce."  When She Makes More ,  Farnoosh Torabi Prince is one of my favorite artists. And, I think that it is genius that the beginning of his famous song, "Let's go crazy" mimics a marriage ceremony. It makes you wonder whether he was suggesting that marriage itself was a path to insanity. If you have forgotten the beginning, here you go, "Dearly beloved, We are gathered here today, To get through this thing called "life" Electric word, life, It means forever and that's a mighty long time, But I'm here to tell you  There's something else..." He writes the afterworld in the blank. However, a recent study suggests that "marriage" could be inserted in its place, especially marriage for high earning women.

Power to the Mothers!

One of the cool things about having this blog is that I learn about so many interesting things.  And when I learn new things, I like to share them with my blog readers so that they too can be edified! :-)

I recently discovered an organization called, "M.O.T.H.E.R.S." (Mothers Ought to Have Equal Rights).  It is is a netroots community of mothers and other family caregivers who look after children or other dependent family members. It promotes social change to enhance the economic security of those who do carework, both exclusively or in conjunction with paid employment.

I'm not endorsing the organization and I am not affiliated with them.  (I'm a lawyer so you know I have to have a disclaimer.  I can't just say, hey this site is cool check it out like NORMAL people! :-)) Seriously, I like the principle of the organization.  Anybody who is working to support moms, help them become financially secure, and obtain equal rights is alright with me!

I'm not an attorney but after scanning the link you provided, I'd say it looks like a good thing.
I think promoting security is a good goal.
