I deleted my baby apps when I realised how much they fetishise motherhood
Whereas the truth is, there is nothing less natural than leaving a woman alone with a baby, day in, day out. The American chef Aarti Sequeira, who has campaigned for women with postnatal depression, called her mother in India when she was in the depths of her own postnatal illness. Her mother replied, “I don’t understand how they’re doing it in America, because if you were here in India, for the first month you wouldn’t do anything”. In many parts of the global south, communal and extended-family parenting, including shared breastfeeding remain commonplace. Humans evolved to care for babies as a tribe. Continuous mothering by the birth mother was a last resort for primates. Socially isolated mothers are far more prone to PND.

4. TED THOMPSON. Thompson died of a nerve disorder last week at 68 in his beloved Texas. Always the quietest guy in the room and one of the shyest people I’ve ever met in football, Thompson amiably but firmly stood his ground as well as any GM I’ve covered in my career. The GM of the Packers for 13 glory seasons (2005-17) made the toughest call an NFL general manager had to make, telling Brett Favre he couldn’t come back to the Pack when Favre wanted to come out of retirement in July 2008. I had a front-row seat for it. I talked to Thompson in mid-July and become convinced that Thompson would not bend to Favre’s wishes after coach Mike McCarthy told Aaron Rodgers he would be the Packer starter. I went to interview Favre at his Mississippi home the weekend before Packers’ training camp began. Favre and his agent, Bus Cook, were convinced that if the Packers wouldn’t give Favre his job back, Thompson would release him so he could sign with the … [Read more...] about FMIA: Ten For Tom—Brady Heading Back To Another Super Bowl, Bringing Buccaneers To Meet Chiefs In Tampa
