More on that Times article

I’m wiped, so this is mostly going to be a few pointers to some links I found useful in putting that Times article about Yale women and their future plans in context.

I’m also working on a post about SAHMs and welfare, but I know too much about welfare and so keep getting lost on tangents…

    I’m going to suggest a couple more – a long smart post by Timothy Burke http://weblogs.swarthmore.edu/burke/?p=103#comments
    basically, ‘rich people get to make choices, poor people don’t, that’s the best context in which to react to this’ and a really interesting article I suggested also in the context of your post ‘we have to talk about Kevin’ by Lionel Shriver about her choice to be childless. The NYT article made me sort of happy to see people hoping to have children at all.

    Katha Pollitt at “The Nation” has, always, an excellent commentary on this as well:
