With another Father’s Day in the rear-view mirror, I happened across this older article by Brigid Schulte for the Washington Post about how dads also want to have it all. It’s from 2013 and a book of hers also delves into the modern overwhelm, which I should check out. But I also found myself wondering about what studies have happened since then, what the Pandemic did to help or hinder that quest for it all and what the outlook is these days. Because I know of no dads who want to be a shlub and many who would rather be that one from that fun Cheerios commercial… without needing to hawk Cheerios.
And what has inflation done to the price of creepy horse masks?
