My daughters (and DILs) all say 'It was different - and so much easier - back in your day! (Charming!)
When pressed to explain, apparently, they feel very judged - by other women - on the quality of their careers and parenting, their incomes, property, cars, holidays, clothes, appearance, memberships (gyms, after school activities, sports, hobbies etc.) - and weekend socialising too! (Mostly those things we just couldn't afford when the kids were young.)
I do remember the pushy, competitive mums of the 1970/80s - but they were in the minority, I'm sure (and avoided like the plague, too). It seems to me that things have really gone downhill!
