We talked a little bit about the "quality of life" phrase in your artist statement consider changing those words to something like renegotiation. Or just keep re arranging and see what fits best to you. You also might want to put in something about how you found these families, that there are three of them and that you visited them all multiple times. Consider doing a little statistical research and having it on hand about how many young moms ect... 

Here are questions that came up in class:

1) Have you shown these parents as bad parents?

2) How didi you find these families and how many of them are there represented?

- i thought what you said about it being important to them as well as you was great! 

3) Why did you choose to show the indifference (parent and child alike)?

- why these moments

4) Is this documentary? / what is documentary and are you engaging it? 

5) What were you assumptions going into this project and how have those affected the result? 

6) Is there a media influence in this work?

7) Objective vs. subjective? 

8) Are we just stupid? Have we been romanticising parenthood when no matter what age the mother it is hard and tiring? 

9) Whose work is your work in dialog with?
