THANK YOU to our super awesome listeners who have already signed up! -------------------------------------- If you could be the chief policy maker for your country right now, what would you change to make having children more attractive to women? Longer parental leaves? Childcare subsidies? Making corporate life entry/ exit/ part time jobs easier? Artificial wombs? Kidding (maybe not entirely) In this final episode of our series, we grapple with what things we wish were true at a macro level to make it easier to raise kids and also to make the choice to have kids more attractive. We also speculate as to why even countries with very generous support for parents (e.g., France) still have low and declining birth rates.

  Ep146: Power, Money and Marriage Part 5 - How will your kids navigate power and money in their relationships?

THANK YOU to our super awesome listeners who have already signed up! -------------------------------------- Oof, it's one thing to negotiate and navigate power and money issues in your own marriage - it can hit a different way when you think about how your own kids might have to deal with these issues with their romantic partners. What are you communicating (directly or indirectly) to your kids about how power and money work in a marriage? Is it different by your kids' gender? What would you hope for them in dealing with power and money issues in their future relationships? To what extent are you able to live out those hopes in your own relationship right now? ****Also, very important question- do you think you'll offer childcare as a grandma/ grandpa? Or are we crazy for even thinking that far ahead?

Anyhow, we talk about mom fun trips, how we chose Vegas, our BSB teenage nostalgia, and how we're fretting about what to wear. We're posting this pre-trip recording with our post-trip thoughts as a two-fer and we're taking a short break in releasing more episodes until September 4th! We hope you enjoy this lighter episode and we will see you in the fall!

  Ep142: Power, Money and Marriage Part 3 - Claiming your power is dissecting your resentments?

  Jul 17, 20261h 4m

  **Special note to our listeners** Love the show? Help us keep the conversation going! Become a paid subscriber through our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠ .⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Your contributions help us continue to make content on issues related to the Asian-American, immigrant, modern parent experience. THANK YOU to our super awesome listeners who have already signed up! -------------------------------------- Susan complained that the last episode sounded like everything is totally peachy with all of us when it comes to Power, Money and Marriage in each of our lives. Of course, the reality is more complicated than that. In the big picture, things might be fine but in the reality of daily life, there is friction and... resentments. A good healthy dose for each of us apparently. This series is supposed to be about power and money in the context of marriage and parenting but when we tried to put the spotlight on the problems around money and power, we got to... resentments. But why? Maybe it's because we feel that the level of power afforded to moms is unfair. Maybe the low value placed on the work of mothering is unfair (and we equate having value with having power). Maybe the expectation around earning income and being a good parent is unfair and wildly unrealistic (and we equate meeting others' expectations to having value to having power). So the chain is: unrealistic expectations that cannot be met --> feeling devalued in others' eyes --> feeling like we get less respect and power --> feelings of unfairness and resentment. Capiche? Maybe some of those resentments are justified. Maybe some are within our control to mitigate and reclaim that power. Anyhow, we dissect in our usual style on this episode.
