Reflection:
When I read "Mommy wars: stay at home and career moms face off on their choices their families" was really a good book when I read it. It had a lot of information in it that I knew would help me in my subculture of housewives. The book talked about the difference of the housewife and the career mom so that will really help me. Since the book had the comparison of both types of mothers I am starting to think if I should narrow my search to a book that is just about housewives. Even though this book was good it will be better to get a different book so I can better focus on my subculture.
