This book won’t give advice on birth, breastfeeding, or bonding It's about motherhood as a cultural construct.Often, opinions are funneled into and amplified on social media, where conversations turn ugly and advice is commercialized. This book confronts issues from divorce and over-burdened court systems, parenting children with a disability, to the big business of mummy-dom, to shifting ideas about fathers, to the increasing numbers of women who choose not to have children. It opens up a space where the taboo and unspoken can be voiced, and makes room for those marginalized by regular conversations around mothers and motherhood.
