Parenting Writing Isn’t Just for People With Kids
Jessica Grose is an opinion writer at the New York Times, where she has a newsletter on parenting and often writes candidly about taboo topics like waiting to find out if she’s miscarried or choosing to take antidepressants while expecting. Her latest book, Screaming on the Inside: The Unsustainability of American Motherhood (out December 6), combines memoir with scientific, historical, and contemporary reporting to illuminate the often difficult and highly politicized experience of being a mother in America today. She’s a relentless advocate for a wide range of ways to parent, and tries to level with readers about the reality of what they see online.
