Lisa Oakey’s Reviews > To Have and to Hold: Motherhood, Marriage, and the Modern Dilemma > Status Update

I’m probably not the audience for this book. I don’t love the immediate assumption without any basis beyond her own anecdotes (and as a psychologist of course she’s seeing many suffering women) that every mother is harboring this dark secret unbearable suffering while still enjoying motherhood. Many suffer silently and isolated in motherhood but many don’t. Show me the numbers Molly!!
