Show Notes
In a society that claims "it takes a village to raise a child," why are so many mothers raising children without one? This episode explores the growing crisis of maternal isolation and the absence of traditional support networks that once sustained families.
Dr. Shannon Weaver draws on her extensive research to discuss how the burden of childcare falls heavily on mothers both emotionally and financially.
Whether you're a parent feeling isolated, someone who supports a parent, or simply interested in how social structures impact family life, this conversation with Dr. Weaver offers insights into one of the most pressing yet often invisible challenges facing families today.
