Never one to shy away from stating her opinions, Globe and Mail columnist Katrina Onstad, wrote on Saturday February 5, 2011 that princess-to-be, Kate Middleton should get a job.
Onstad argues that Middleton and Michelle Obama, along with “opt-outers” (a minority group of educated, privileged women who choose to play a supportive role to their high-powered spouse) are ultimately depriving themselves not only of compensation but contribution.
Needless to say, these are fighting words that have long fueled the battle between stay-at-home moms and working mothers. The 4mothers have a lot to say in response to Onstad’s comments and will be the focus of February’s At Issue.
