Lisa Belkin calls it quits
0 comments
Lisa Belkin, often a lightning rod in the “mommy wars,” is moving on after nine years writing the Life’s Work column in the New York Times. She is considered the inventor of the phrase “opting out” for women who decide to quit their careers to stay at home with a new baby. When she first wrote about this phenomenon in 2003, it incited a lot of anger by career women who felt demeaned for their own life decisions.
Belkin will continue writing a daily blog called Motherlode at nytimes.com/parenting.
