Why Are Moms The Default Parent? Our Ben Affleck and Nara Smith Hot Takes & We're Back! | Between Us Moms

This week we're diving into the pop culture moments, motherhood debates, and very real mom feelings that have everyone talking. First, we're catching up on Dancing with the Stars! Who are we voting for? We're SO inspired by Ezra Frech, always rooting for Sharna Burgess, and think Taylor Hanson and Britt Stewart deserved more time on the show. Alexander Skarsgård's questionable plastic shoes have Hallie personally offended by his toes but Katie is concerned about something else. 😂 Then, Ben Affleck's recent comments about co-parenting with Jennifer Garner spark a BIG conversation: Are moms actually better at parenting, or have we just been conditioned to believe we have to be? Do dads get to be the “fun parent”? And what would actually fall apart if you were away from home for 48 hours? We're also talking Nara Smith, who has defended her decision to have four kids before the age of 24 and says motherhood hasn't held back her career. The moms weighs in on the way her comments about “old moms” were framed, and we get into why there is no one-size-fits-all timeline for motherhood. Has becoming a mom changed your career plans? Do you think Nara's perspective is empowering, or does having resources make all the difference? Plus, life updates from Katie and Hallie, the magic of having kids in school for half the day, Hallie's newfound desire to attend ALL the weddings, and Katie reflecting on five years of marriage, what she's proud of, and a few things that still make her say “WTF.”
