PARENTING EXPERT OFFERS ADVICE
Resign from the Good Mommy Club
- it’ll do your child wonders
By John Rosemond
Copyright 2014, John K.
Rosemond
Proposed: The primary rea
son so many of today’s moth
ers are so very stressed by
child rearing - something their
grandmothers, for the most
part, approached fairly non
chalantly - is because they do
something their grandmothers
did not do: they read parenting
columns, magazines and
books. And yes, I’m well
aware of the irony here.
Men, with very rare excep
tion, do not read parenting
materials. There are no men’s
groups that meet to discuss the
latest issue of a certain parent
ing magazine, for example.
Men do not get on the phone
with one another and talk
about one of its articles.
Because they do not expose
themselves to the potential tox
icity of professional parenting
advice, men think about their
kids but do not obsess about
them.
The more women read, the
more inclined they become to
join what I call the Good
Mommy Club. Membership in
the GMC compels a woman to
feel that she must clear, on a
daily basis, the Good Mommy
Bar - representing the post-
19605 standard of maternal
achievement. Written on this
figurative bar are the require
ments for attaining Good
Mommy-hood, the most
prominent of which is “The
Good Mommy pays as much
attention to and does as much
for her child as possible.”
(Fascinating, that. My mother
made it clear that it was my job
to pay attention to her, which is
why I did.) Other Good
Mommy necessities include
“The GM drives her child to as
many developmentally-,
socially- and neurologically-
enriching after-school activi
ties as possible” and “The GM
makes sure her child’s home
work goes back to school with
no mistakes.”
Of this there is no doubt:
The mother who allows herself
to be captured by the GMC and
feels thus compelled to clear
the Good Mommy Bar will
begin to experience the raising
of children as stressful and
anxiety-filled. Dealt with prop
erly, children are not stressful.
History provides the proof.
Sixty-plus years ago a woman
raising 10 children experi
enced less stress than does a
mom today who is raising two.
But then, no previous genera
tion of mothers ever thought
raising children was a BIG
DEAL. Thinking of something
as an important responsibility
and thinking of it as a BIG
DEAL are two entirely differ
ent things, with two entirely
different outcomes. In other
words, the stress and anxiety
that so many of today’s moms
associate with child rearing
have nothing to do with chil
dren and everything to do with
membership in the Good
Mommy Club.
The stress and anxiety is
made worse by the fact that the
Good Mommy Bar keeps
being ratcheted up. To bring
this discussion full circle, what
was good enough mothering
according to last month’s par
enting magazine is not quite
good enough according to this
month’s.
I ask women, “After you
read (a parenting magazine),
do you feel reassured that you
are doing a good enough job as
things stand, or do you feel
that you now have three or four
more Good Mommy assign
ments?”
Every single time I have
asked this question of a moth
er, she stares blankly at me for
a few seconds and then says
words to this effect: “I never
would have put that together,
John, but now that you’ve
caused me to think about it, the
answer is yes.”
“So what do you think
about doing yourself a great
favor and never read it again?”
That is a first step toward
resigning from the Good
Mommy Club, which I highly
recommend to all of its mem
bers. This is one women’s lib
eration movement I think all
men can cheer on.
