The Anti-Supermom Trend : Healthy or Dangerous?
In this YouTube clip, I discuss both the positive and negative aspects of the anti-supermom trend and what it means for women. While the focus in recent years has been on becoming a domestic diva, some moms are proudly headed in the opposite direction. Here, I offer some analysis as well as a few thoughts to help women find their identity and maintain their voice in the crowd.See More

Those bags are so cute! Too bad I didn't find out about your giveaway until it was too late. I look forward to checking out your blog more later.
Cheers,

I have the same question as Phoebe! How exciting. I'm originally from NYC and West Chester feels like a little piece of Greenwich Village to me. I really like it. It's undergone quite the transformation in the last 10 years.

- Thanks! How did you come to live in Japan? And what a coincidence that you're from near here!

Judith Hope said… - Sarah, I wd be happy to be friends - I get a good sense of who you are and your life in Japan from your messages and your writings. Think we are very different people - yet, our strength in God is similar. Feel that you have been a great one for accepting change in your life ... and making a life .. for yourself and your children. Congratulations on who you are and what you do! More from me, soon.

Lesley-Anne Evans said… - Read God is Awake this morning and it woke me up in another way to the truth that you have to crawl down off the throne if you pray 'Your Kingdom come, Your will be done' and really mean it. I want to mean it. I don't want my fears to rule (or my need to control everything because of my fears). Thanks for writing on the topic and for being real and gutsy.

- Hi Sarah,
I am a fellow children's book author and am new to the site. I wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I look forward to getting to know the members of the board. I am also a prosecutor of child abuse and sex crimes in New York City and I received a terrific review that all parents should read and was hoping you would join me in a Twitter and Facebook campaign. Here is the link if you are interested. http://superfunmama.blogspot.com/2009/11/my-body-belongs-to-me-talking-with.html
All the best,

Glad to be connected here, though!

Suzanne Linn Kamata said… - I live in a town called Aizumi, just over the river from Tokushima. "Ai" means indigo. This town was once known for its indigo production, but these days carrots are a major crop. I live in neighborhood of farmers - carrots, sweet potatoes, watermelon, rice. etc. Everyone around here (except my family) gets up at about 5AM! We moved here (into my mother-in-law's house) about four years ago, but previously we lived a couple towns over. I keep a blog at http://gaijinmama.wordpress.com.
By the way, since you write for children, you might be interested in joining SCBWI - Tokyo. There's a helpful listserv. http://www.scbwi.jp

- Hi, Sarah. Thanks for getting in touch! I've never been to Aomori. I imagine it's a cold,snowy place in winter. It's known for its apples, right? How long have you lived there?
