  The Jewish mother has become an icon of intrusive, obsessive parenting, caricatured in generations of films, novels, radio and television programs, stand-up comedy and jokebooks. A new, more positive, narrative, developed by feminist writers, comedians, scholars, and mothers themselves, demonstrates why the Jewish mother is a perfect role model for today's intensive parents.
