Momversation
Momversation is a website and online video series produced by DECA, the Digital Entertainment Corporation of America. Initially launched on November 12, 2008, Momversation features discussions among mom bloggers about issues pertinent to women and parenting.
Overview
[edit]In its original format, Momversation focused on a single web series targeted at mothers. However, on May 13, 2012, DECA relaunched the platform as a broader video hub for parenting content. The revamped Momversation.com became a destination hosting various parenting-related videos, including clips such as President Obama's visit to The View and content from DECA's YouTube channel, Kin Community. This transition marked the site's expansion into video syndication, establishing a stronger presence in the digital video landscape for mothers.[1]
Contributors
[edit]The website has featured several well-known "mommy bloggers," who engage in candid conversations about parenting, relationships, and modern family life. Notable contributors include Heather Armstrong of Dooce.com, Rebecca Woolf of GirlsGoneChild.net, and Alice Bradley of Finslippy.com.[2]
Discussions
[edit]A notable episode discussed the challenges of balancing marriage and parenting, with Armstrong reflecting on her personal experiences, including postpartum depression and psychiatric treatment after the birth of her first child. In these discussions, contributors often debated differing perspectives on motherhood and marriage, creating a space for honest and relatable dialogue.[2]
