Summary
"How momfluencer culture impacts women psychologically as consumers, as performers of their stories, and as mothers"--, Provided by publisherThe private work of mothering has turned into a public performance. The message is simple: we're all just a couple of clicks away from a better, more beautiful experience of motherhood-- while momfluencers hawk essential oils, parenting manuals, baby slings, and other sponsored content. These are businesswomen-- churning out their lives as content on a daily basis. Peterson interviews prominent momfluencers and pop culture analysts to explore this online glorification of the ideal mama: a dream tangled up in whiteness, capitalism, and the heternormative nuclear family. -- adapted from jacket
