...September 2005. At 35, Melbourne mother Simone is keenly aware that time's running out if she wants a second child. But she and her husband calculate that the cost of local child care means they won't be able to afford another baby until their three-year-old daughter starts school. Simone could leave her part-time job to look after both children, but she says that would not only hurt the family finances but deprive her daughter of friends and experiences she thrives on: "Even if I had family or friends to look after her during...
...have grown up playing with the children she looks after. "They become like family," she says. For those who can afford it, nannies are another choice.

Another is the one-on-one relationship: "I like the idea of my child getting to know someone and feeling really secure with them."

But Connelly is no stranger to wiseguy connections. In their 1996 book, Gotti: Rise and Fall, Jerry Capeci and Gene Mustain identified...
...wives are no harem girls, however, and the series turns on their complex dynamics and strong performances. Barb (Jeanne Tripplehorn) is the strong-willed first wife. Nicki (Chloë Sevigny), Roman's daughter, chafes at being No. 2 to "boss lady" Barb and nurses a shopping addiction. Margene (Ginnifer Goodwin) is the young, insecure baby of the trio. The patriarchal setup will unsettle some viewers, as it did the actresses. "It felt like we were shooting a period piece," says Tripplehorn, "like something out of the '50s." Yet each woman has thought-out reasons why polygamy works for her, and their...
