Gender, parenthood, and anger

Article Abstract:

Parenthood increases anger and there is a marked gender inequality in the anger expressed by parents. A study of gender inequality in parental anger shows that women are more sensitive to the distressing aspects of parenthood, such as strains of childcare and economic strains. Mothers express the highest level of anger than any other group. Parents exhibit more anger than nonparents and the frequency of their anger increases with additional births into the family.
