Women and the "Having it All" Fiction

Kimberly Berg wrote in to share this provocative article  Why Women Still Can’t Have It All by Anne-Marie Slaughter - a high-level policy maker in Washington DC who stepped down to care for her family.

Here's a blurb from the article to give you the sense:

IT’S TIME TO STOP FOOLING OURSELVES, SAYS A WOMAN WHO LEFT A POSITION OF POWER: THE WOMEN WHO HAVE MANAGED TO BE BOTH MOTHERS AND TOP PROFESSIONALS ARE SUPERHUMAN, RICH, OR SELF-EMPLOYED. IF WE TRULY BELIEVE IN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL WOMEN, HERE’S WHAT HAS TO CHANGE.

Thanks for the share, Kimberly!
