Leslie Bennetts: Feminine Mistake, The: Are We Giving Up Too Much?
Bennetts addresses the economic perils of "choosing dependency" for married women who never develop or prioritize their own careers, or plan for their own financial future. She also highlights the rewards of income-producing work. Her worldview, which I share, is that we should all “become our most complete and authentic selves" and for many of us, developing our families alone is only half a life. A great half, in my experience, but made all the more fulfilling when balanced with a half that engages with the outside world.
