Special needs child suffers cuts, bruises after he says teacher punched him in face for trying to perfect his homeworkMeghan, The Duchess of Sussex, Katie Couric, Brooke Shields and Nancy Wang Yuen take part in the keynote"Breaking Barrier, Shaping Narratives: How Women Lead On and Off the Screen" on the first day of the South by Southwest Conference on Friday, March 8, 2024, in Austin, Texas.
Yuen added that policymakers — not working mothers — are determining policy that affects women and moms. “When women's rights advance, that advances society," Yuen added."When women are working and getting equal share, they're making money. They're actually contributing to the economy.”Meghan said she experienced online “bullying and abuse” when pregnant with her two children and immediately after they were born.
The issue of women being treated differently from men as they age also was discussed by Couric and Shields. Shields, 58, said Hollywood doesn't “know what to do with” women actors as they get older.
