Dads are responsible for all the tech purchases in the family, right? No way. A survey of more than 1,000 moms and expectant moms released Friday by BabyCenter shows the significant role moms play in making home technology decisions. According to the study, while men respond to specific features when shopping for technology, it’s the practical side of [...] According to a recent study by Ohio State University, women are more likely than men to follow the parenting practices of their mothers. As a result, “We really need to learn a lot more about how fathers learn to parent,” said study co-author Jonathan Vespa. More than 1,000 young parents were chosen from a group whose [...] Some time back, I blogged about a poll conducted by Parenting magazine that indicated many moms were fed up with their husbands.
