[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For another perspective, read this article from Outside: https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-adventure/snow-sports/tahoe-avalanche-truckee-memorial-moms/[/quote]

This is some duuumb self-congratulatory rationalization.[/quote]

What's dumb about it?[/quote]

What’s intelligent about it?[/quote]

Notice how the author reduces these women to just "moms". I'm sure they would hate that since so much of this is about not losing their sense of self and not just being wives, mothers, employees, sense of self, freedom.. But, this author just calls them 'moms'. The same women would probably bristle if the pediatrician walked in the exam room and just referred to them as "mom" during a child's appointment, instead of bothering to learn her name.[/quote]

That would be great to list the profession of each of these moms in every article. Would remind everyone of their intelligence and degrees.[/quote]

Would it?

Their kids just had a week off for Ski Week/ prez day weekend, and then the following week they also took off for this trip.

Must have a cool profession and role indeed! [/quote]
The accident occurred during "ski week".[/quote]
