19、 on the heels of a heated debate over comments made by renowned economist Mao Yushi, who said a couple of days ago that he was speaking for the rich and working for the poor.A report released by the Asian Development Bank last Wednesday revealed that Chinas Gini coefficient-an indicator of the wealt

29、分数：71.00)Facbook MomsAKimberly Gervaise, a stay-at-home mother of three in Little Silver, N.J., joined Facebook five years ago and only posts every couple of months, mostly sharing photos from special events, like birthdays. She has 393 friends, and wishes some of them would tuck it in (收敛) a bit.
30、I get a little annoyed about people who feel the need to post a picture of a straight-A report card-and there are many,“ she says. “I am sure that most of the time, they are just proud, but I find it annoying.“BGervaise says more and more mothers are using Facebook as a platform to boast about thei
31、r lives, their kids, their parenting techniques. And thats making it harder and harder for moms like her to log on without getting slapped in the face. Bragging about your kids is nothing new, but before Facebook, the Compare Contrast game was mostly played at the playground or the preschool parking
32、 lot. Morns would stand around discreetly scrutinizing kids to see who was hitting milestones faster or slower than their own children. Now its going on all day, every day, in a vast electronic sandbox.CFacebook morns are constantly bombarded with updates about their friends kids and their accomplis
33、hments. Daily, hourly even. According to Edison Researchs Morns and Media 2013 report, 57% of moms on Facebook are over 35-these women are the first generation to have raised their children entirely in the Facebook era. They started out single, gossiping and posting party photos and flirting, and no
34、w theyre changing diapers, worrying about peanut allergies and diligently navigating the sometimes treacherous mommy waters. And if theyre active on Facebook, theyre learning in front of a huge, rapt audience.DMothers are heavy Facebook users. Edisons 2013 research reveals that 7 out of 10 rooms hav
35、e a profile, and there are more than 1,000 mommy groups, public and private. These groups range in size from hundreds of members to tens of thousands, and they are discussing everything from potty training to gaming that private-school admissions test.EOf all the members on Facebook, morns check in
36、the most (an average of 5.1 times a day, according to Edison), and they keep coming back, even if they are being battered with subtle-and sometimes not so subtle-“My kids smarter/healthier/happier than yours“ remarks. For the morn who barely gets her kids shoes on before hustling them off to school,
37、 posts that portray the perfect family can stir up guilt or even self-loathing(自我厌恶). “Who has time to draw pictures with children? Who has time to clean up the giant mess?“ says Meredith DePersia, a working mother of two in San Francisco. “When I see these posts, I definitely feel like a lazy perso
38、n.“FThe great time-killer is now a massive ego-killer, and even a mommy-blogger with a huge following feels vulnerable. “Facebook makes me fee/bad,“ says Glennon Doyle Melton, who had a New York Times bestseller with Carry On, Warrior. “No matter how satisfied I am with my life, career, family, soci
39、al life, house, etc., as soon as I log on to Facebook and peek into others lives, I immediately feel that unease caused by comparison.“GThis is turning many morns off. “One thing that drove me crazy when my son was younger was rooms posting about how well their baby slept,“ a morn from Texas recalls
40、 “Our son was a pretty poor sleeper, and we spent so much of that first year utterly exhausted. So to be honest, when I would see a post gloating, X slept for six hours straight last night! I would immediately hide that person for a while because it would irritate me.“ An online media professional
41、and morn of one from Falls Church, Va., is so tired of playing the game. “I kind of avoid Facebook entirely,“ she says, “because Im sick of everyones presentation of perfection.“HThere is nothing in the Facebook rules that requires complete honesty and total disclosure, and it is human nature to por
42、tray the best version of ones life. From carefully presenting our vacation pictures to sharing perfectly posed first-day-of-school photos, all of us, not just morns, try to portray a problem-free, fun-filled, blissful life. And that can be pretty annoying if youve just spent the morning watching you
43、r 4-year-old repaint your kitchen walls with oatmeal(麦片粥).I“An acquaintance posted a drawing her daughter had made, and it was so perfect. Way more than my son could do, even though he is the same age,“ says a teacher and mother from Texas. “I panicked for a minute, but talked myself down. If someon
44、e is posting positive, cheerful, perfect things all the time, I always think: Nope. Not buying it. No ones life is that perfect.“JPart of the problem is that this isnt happening in real time, face to face. That means morns who might not mean to offend are missing the social cues that normally put a
45、damper on excessive crowing. “Social networks like Facebook havent changed the way people respond to bragging; theyve changed how much people brag,“ says Dr. Pamela Rutledge, director of the Media Psychology: Research Center. “The ability to publicize so much has blurred the line between sharing and
46、 boasting. When you brag in a group, you notice when they wander away. When you brag on Facebook, its harder to tell who youre alienating.“KDr. Saedi, author of the blog Millennial Media, thinks its important to keep it all in perspective. “Remember that, like TV, not everything you see on Facebook
47、is true. No ones life is perfect. And the more that people try to prove how great it is, the more its often a sign that its not. Its important for morns on Facebook to take a step back, get some distance and reassess.“LMany feeling-smothered mothers dont want to “step back“; they want to escape, to be free. “I deleted my Facebook account!“ crows a stay-at-home morn of two in Austin, Texas. “I hated the Keeping up with the Joneses behavior that Facebook engenders.“ Not everyone is ready-or able-to completely cut the Facebook umbilical cord(脐带). One morn decide
