		Crittenden, who is the mother of an 11-year-old daughter, a nine-year-old son and an 18-month-old baby girl, noticed her friends questioning the quick return to work.
		Crittenden and her peers can afford not to worry about status in their marriages and in society because they have no financial need to work and have support at home.
		Crittenden did the same when she wrote an email giving Frum credit for coining the term "axis of evil" when he was a speech writer for President George Bush.

	Cover Bio from Current Biography Monthly Magazine - July 2003
		According to Crittenden, feminists in the 1960s and 1970s assumed erroneously that for the majority of women, building a career when they were in their 20s would bring more fulfillment, and would be a higher priority during that stage of their lives than getting married and having children.
		Danielle Crittenden began her career in journalism as a teenager, with a column in the Toronto Sun.
		Crittenden's novel, Amanda.Bright'home, about a career woman turned stay-at-home mother, was serialized weekly on the Wall Street Journal's on-line opinion page, OpinionJournal.com, in the summer of 2001; the first novel to be serialized in that newspaper, it was published in hardcover in May 2003.

	Defending "The Cost of Delaying Marriage"
		They were offended by Danielle's assertion that women who are still single in their 30s and beyond must be that way because they disregarded the many proposals they received in their 20s.
		Crittenden's article is critical of single women and suggests that we have somehow missed God's plan for our lives by doing what we want to do.
		Crittenden mentions nothing of men who may simply want partners they can love and connect with on a deeper emotional basis, and men who care nothing of age, fertility or looks and instead want intellectual and emotional equals.

	Review \| Amanda Bright @ Home by Danielle Crittenden
		While you ponder the irony of this faint praise, may I suggest you read it under the dryer at the beauty parlor, or during a break from waxing the floor in high heels and pearls.
		For Crittenden the reactionary has given us a novel that blasts 1950s values at us with all the subtlety of a bullhorn.
		All the while Crittenden paints him as a rough-and-tumble, "boys will be boys" kind of kid no one has the common sense to understand.

		Ben is admitted despite his "poor scissoring skills." Crittenden seems to delight in mocking this allegedly superior education center, right down to having Ben suspended for waving a peanut butter cookie under another child's nose.
		Danielle Crittenden is a journalist and the author of What Our Mothers Didn't Tell Us, a book that resulted in Vanity Fair declaring her one of the most important new writers and thinkers about women.
		Her articles and essays have appeared in many publications, including the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and the Washington Post, and she is a frequent commentator on national TV and radio.

	Click, Clack
		Crittenden's book, on the other hand, is a tally of what she calls “clack” experiences — the opposite of clicks — that expose how feminism has betrayed its commitment to real choices for women, imposing instead a rigid new set of feminist prejudices.
		Crittenden recognizes that her ideas are tantamount to heresy for modern women, but she's on to something deeper than theory and politics.
		Lest one think that contemporary women are too picky about romance and should accept, as their grandmothers did, the first compatible bachelor to come along, one must be reminded that our grandmothers knew what to expect from those bachelors and the bachelors knew what society expected of them.

		Crittenden's hostile view of marriage is hardly unique — it's shared, for instance, by Marilyn Yalom, author of History of the Wife (2001).

		Crittenden insists that, "mothers' choices are not being made in a vacuum.

	"What a pile of codswallop!" - Salon
		I'm guessing he'd turn out to be a sapling willow, as much a figment of Danielle Crittenden's imagination as the rest of the "conservative" social fantasy.
		Danielle Crittenden's new novel is rife with stereotypes, ludicrously overdrawn characters who represent what she is against (liberals), and just plain bad writing.
		Crittenden may be a no-talent propagandist, but isn't it possible she is on to something?

	Matrimony, motherhood and wooden characters - Salon
		In her propagandistic novel "Amanda Bright@home," right-wing pundit Danielle Crittenden extols the virtues of early marriage, the free market and having a "mighty tree" as a husband.
		Apart from Amanda and her manly husband, Bob (who Crittenden describes as "a mighty tree"), every caricature -- excuse me, character -- in the book is either coldhearted, a buffoon or both.
		I guess I shouldn't be surprised at the level of scorn she heaped on this poor sap.

	Montreal Mirror - Books : Amanda Bright @ Home
		Crittenden argued that the smart new feminist should settle down and start breeding as early as possible, skipping the bachelorette years and postponing higher education and career until the kids are ready for school.
		Last year Crittenden blipped on the radar again, humiliating herself and her husband, David Frum, a former White House speechwriter.
		Frum resigned soon after Crittenden sent out a mass e-mail gushing over his genius at coming up with the phrase "axis of evil." When called by the reporter who broke the story, Crittenden refused to comment, claiming she felt enough "like Lucy Ricardo" as it was.

	Delaying Marriage -- Another Look at the Costs
		Posted: Saturday, September 10, 2005 at 1:37 am ET Danielle Crittenden, author of What Our Mothers Didn't Tell Us, has written a must-read article, "The Cost of Delaying Marriage." The article has recently been republished by Boundless.org.
		This is an issue I address often, and I appreciate Crittenden's thoughtful analysis -- as well as her perspective as a woman.
		Crittenden [married to David Frum, by the way], observes that, as recently as the 1950s, most young women married early.

	TAP: Vol 7, Iss. 29. Will Class Trump Gender?. Wendy Kaminer. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		As a young and conservative writer, Crittenden regularly addresses social issues with housewifely tartness, extolling Cinderella as a "role model" for little girls and chastising a woman who resists being addressed by her husband's name.
		Crittenden is a columnist for the Women's Quarterly, the journal of the oddly named Independent Women's Forum.
		The presence of prominent right-wing careerists gives IWF the look of a neo-feminist group, but it is expressly antifeminist, aiming to bury feminism, not revive it, according to Danielle Crittenden.

		CRITTENDEN: It's also -- I think, first, fl lyricist, as I understand, wrote these lyrics, but what we get away from in these debates is intent, and something I think is only racist if you really intend it to be, and she was just picking up in the ghetto slang of her milieu.
		CRITTENDEN: "My Take" this week was the group that wants a constitutional amendment that would define marriage as a union between a man and a woman.
		CRITTENDEN: I agree, but I also think what is happening is that courts are undermining our rights and, as conservatives we are against legal activism.

	iParenting's Mom of the Month
		Crittenden shared her thoughts on her newest novel and the joys of motherhood during a recent interview with iParenting.com.
		Danielle Crittenden doesn't like being labeled, nor does she like being put in a political or ideological box based on her children or career – or lack of either.
		However, like her mother, Crittenden is a writer and journalist, and this is a job that, traditionally, allows more flexibility than many careers.

	iParenting.com: Mom of the Month
		Crittenden uses Bright's situation to take a look at many of the issues that face families of young children today, not only financial, but social.
		Challenging this political stereotyping was Crittenden's introduction into a public examination of women's issues; it was only later, after she married journalist David Frum and gave birth to her first child, Miranda, that she entered into the classic work/baby/motherhood dilemma.
		However, Crittenden says, the debate is not over family versus career, it's about finding a balance and being able to talk about it beyond politics and ideology.

	Online NewsHour: American Feminism -- March 1, 1999
		DANIELLE CRITTENDEN: Well, one of the things, you see it constantly in the surveys, there's this sense of feeling trapped.
		DANIELLE CRITTENDEN: It's absolutely true that I know a lot of 24- and 25-year-olds who say, "Well, Danielle, please, I'd like to get married; introduce me to someone." And again, when you change female expectations, as we've done, you change male expectations.
		DANIELLE CRITTENDEN: Well, not imprisoning, but it was a kind of shooting-yourself-in-the-foot element, that -- I think there's now a consensus that it was great for men, and that we are -- that sexual freedom is not the same thing as sexual equality; that as women, we want different things, ultimately, out of our relationships.

	Flak Magazine: Review of Amanda.Bright@home, 5.29.01
		Crittenden drops a few clues that something may be amiss.
		She's PC to the max, correcting her 3-year-old for saying "Indian" instead of "Native American." Her "egalitarian" worldview doesn't allow her to contemplate her husband's ease at getting the kids to behave, or even his "manly and authoritative" appearance in a business suit.
		David Brooks (whom I already tend to confuse with her husband, Bush speechwriter David Frum.) The kids' names are Ben and Emily; a less sharp observer might have called them something like Jared and Brittany.

	Playing the Politics of Feminism
		Crittenden and her antifeminist sisters are there to provide political views that won’t clash with that smashing ’50s dress.
		The women of Crittenden’s tribe are simply not feminists, or “nonfeminists,” as they like to be called.
		Whether in jest or in earnest, that comment reveals a good deal about Crittenden, living in a world where the Women’s Quarterly is a stylish alternative to a “Prada handbag,” the only choice women should make is of “the [household] help she needs,” and the vote is something to be given up on a whim.
