ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「America’s mothers are in crisis. But is anybody listening? In September, The Times began following three working mothers, in three different parts of the U.S. The mothers have kept logs of their time — by text, email and audio — and sat for dozens of interviews. What has emerged is a story of chaos and resilience, resentment and persistence, and, of course, hope. In other words: What it means to be a mother. There has long been a refrain among working women in America that to get ahead, the “mom” part of their lives needed to be hidden from view — lest they be viewed as “uncommitted” to the work or somehow less fit for the job. For hourly wage workers — and many who are now tasked with doing the essential work to keep our country running — that burden has often been even more pronounced. But there is no hiding anymore. The struggles of working parents — and moms, in particular — have never been more in our faces. And yet this work — the planning, the coordinating, the multitasking, the hustling — often goes unnoticed. Moms shoulder the lion’s share of the housework and childcare. But it's not just the domestic burdens, the working from home, the record unemployment or the remote learning. The pandemic is also a mental health crisis for some mothers that needs to be addressed, or at least acknowledged. @nytgender and @nytparenting are showing all of the heartbreaking moments of fear, resignation and chaos, and the rays of joy that can sometimes shine through.
