Released earlier in the spring of 2010, said highly of the book Elisabeth Badinter: The Conflict , wife and mother published by Flammarion. Even the English have heard, if we go by this Times article .
This book is available at all major bookstores in Quebec. I have not liked was the chance to read it, but the views of the author greatly interests me because it examines motherhood as a form of bondage.
" The resurgence of naturalism - that is reintroducing the concept of maternal instinct well worn and praised the sacrifices women - is the greatest danger for their emancipation and gender equality.
dint hear that a mother must repeat all to her child, her milk , his time and energy, it is inevitable that more and more women stop at the barrier. Some, indeed, find their full development in motherhood, but most of them will one day calculating pleasures and pains: on one side, an irreplaceable experience, love given and made and the importance of the transmission, on the other, frustration and daily stress, the inevitable conflicts and sometimes the feeling of failure.
While nearly a third of German women are childless, it means they are to be achieved other than motherhood as it is their imposes. For now, the French have escaped this dilemma at all or nothing. They have resisted the edicts of some gurus of Pediatrics. They will head the instructions of maternalist firmly supported by the most respectable institutions? Until when will they impose their desires and their will against the rampant discourse of guilt? "
already so I enjoy the idea to settle in a chair with a cup of tea under a warm blanket and read this book while the snow falls this winter.
