Read other letters about this article
I liked this article, and found it a useful reflection on a common problem a lot of my friends with babies ran into. I was genuinely shocked at the amount of vitriol poured on this author's head as well as on Salon editors for choosing it as a lead story. I was even more shocked at the floodtide of bitter Salon readers who apparently hate their post-baby wives (thanks for the overshare, Anonymous, we get that you are having trouble at home) and are taking out their frustrations on an author they've never met. Get some help, people--or at least get a grip.
For the record, I'm a hard news fan also, but I think that these type of stories address things that are a large part of family life--and as such, are absolutely worth Salon eyeball time. Though I'd like to see more hard news political coverage back on Salon, is there some reason we can't have both? The tone of the other letters seems to assume a false choice between the two.
