The last thing parents should do is try to “balance” work and family. Confronting the overwhelming evidence that children suffer when their mothers leave them for the workplace, Brian Robertson asks why it has nevertheless become the norm for mothers to work. The answer, Robertson reveals, is a transformation in the way we think about work itself.
What we once undertook to support our families we now pursue as a means of self-fulfillment. Robertson shows how a potent combination of ideology, government policy, and corporate coercion has driven parents from home—and how they can find their way back.
