2024 Is Suddenly About Having Kids. Why?
Manage episode 434549354 series 2858010
If you believe JD Vance, the American family is in crisis. But are attacks on “childless cat ladies” and pitches for enfranchising kids actual policy platforms or merely culture war cudgels?
This week on “Matter of Opinion,” Jessica Grose joins Michelle, Ross and Carlos to debate the weird ways gender and family are showing up in the election and share their own roads to parenthood.
Plus, Jessica suggests a deep dive into a culture of “tin pot dictators wearing LoveShackFancy.”
