读过《All Joy and No Fun》 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
刚开始还安慰自己,我没孩子,但是了解下总不是坏事嘛。而且也在observe身边的房东姐姐带小孩,对照起来应该很有意思。直到我在车里听到”we middle class Americans”简直乐坏,我既不是middle class也不是Americans,操着什么太平洋的心呀😂 说起来有很多德州和中国移民的例子哎~(现在的我认为)我会强迫我小孩学习滑冰和散打的……其他的应该就放羊了。

There's no shortage of books about how parents affect their children's lives, but what about vice versa? That's what New York Magazine contributing editor and mother Jennifer Senior sets out to investigate in All Joy and No Fun, a book about parental well-being.
"We assume that children will improve our happiness," Senior says, "That's why babies are called bundles of joy. But what's so interesting is that one of the most robust findings in the social sciences — and it's been this way for about 50 years — is that children do not improve their parents' happiness."
