According to American culture, a tremendous amount of time and energy should be given to children.  The "Mommy Wars" makes mothers who work feel guilty about the time they spend away from their children. Mothers who work find it difficult to meet the expectations of intense hands-on mothering. It is believed that the amount of time mothers spend with their children is irreplaceable. To live up to these expectations is exhausting and daunting. According to Hays (1996), "intensive mothering" serves the purpose of " men, whites, the upper classes, capitalist owners and state leaders."]]> 2017-02-22 09:11:16 UTC https://padlet.com/eglasenberg/Elana_padlet17/wish/155386109 eglasenberg https://padlet.com/eglasenberg/Elana_padlet17/wish/155386253 Double standard of parenthood!  According to Presser (1995), a mother's time spent with children is more important than a fathers time. ]]> 2017-02-22 09:12:12 UTC https://padlet.com/eglasenberg/Elana_padlet17/wish/155386253 eglasenberg https://padlet.com/eglasenberg/Elana_padlet17/wish/155386348 There is a difference if mothers are just present or actually engaged in activities with their children. 
Accessible time- time spent when mother and child are not engaging in activities
Engaged time- time spent when they participate in activities.
Researchers stress the importance of engaged time for children to develop and feel nurtured.

The amount of mothers' time mattered in nuanced ways and surprisingly only in adolescence. ]]> 2017-02-22 09:13:38 UTC https://padlet.com/eglasenberg/Elana_padlet17/wish/155386444 eglasenberg https://padlet.com/eglasenberg/Elana_padlet17/wish/155386521 Testing on this topic is surprisingly scant.
