Working Mothers

Those researchers, who said that the children of mothers who work outside the home (that is, most mothers) do less exercise, watch more telly, and eat more junk food than the children of un-paid mothers?

They were SO not in my house today. I outslobbed any nanny-using filofax-waving checkout-clerking mother reliant on paid childcare (availability currently under threat in the UK, by the way) and did almost nothing from The Big Book Of Halcyon 'Fifties Mothering.

I think you'll find that, according to the article, fathers don't exist.

Of course, because everyone knows that anything that goes wrong with a child is entirely the mother's fault.
