Oh and before I forget - my best bud Mel sent me this link to an article from the Globe and Mail about 'push presents'. Essentially, they're expensive gifts, usually jewelry, that new dads give to their partners for all their hard work in the delivery room. Oh yes, nothing says "I appreciate the nine months of carrying our child and the 8 hours it took to get her/him out" like a Tiffany's stackable diamond celebration ring. I'll bite my tongue from saying anymore about this phenomenon, but Mel and I thought it was just too fitting after last week's entry on commodification.
