Jordan talks with Nadya Williams about her new book on children and mothers. They cover topics like whether our culture is really hostile to mothers, if there is a built-in disdain for motherhood, why many reflections on children and motherhood come from secular frameworks and push children out of view, what messages expecting mothers encounter when they go to a typical doctor's office for prenatal care, and why our culture "commodifies" children.
Resources:
1) Mothers, Children, and the Body Politic: Ancient Christianity and the Recovery of Human Dignity, Nadya Williams
2) Brave New World, Aldous Huxley
3) Hannah's Children: The Women Quietly Defying the Birth Dearth, Catherine Pakaluk
