June 24, 20223 yr Just now, Paul852 said: That's fine. Not all women want to stop working nor should they ever be expected to because of the way others feel a family should function. I don’t understand your point. I don’t see anyone advocating for laws that women can’t work. It’s not an unusual opinion that having a parent at home to raise the child is generally better

That is all.

June 24, 20223 yr Perhaps the States is where the issue belongs. Blue States will generally expand abortion rights and Red States will generally restrict them. I don't foresee the entire country returning to the back alley days of the past.

I happen to agree having a parent in the home "actually" helping to raise the child is overall good for the child, which is also good for society. I dont care which parent that is.
June 24, 20223 yr Just now, Paul852 said: My point is some opinions that women in the office rather than home is ruining society are ridiculous. That is all. I think there is some truth to it. Like any movement, there is a pendulum swing and extreme opinions. By the time I was going to college it was expected and seen as necessary to be successful and valuable. Staying at home with kids was looked down upon. I do believe this flooded the workforce and suppressed earnings. And then one income families became two driving up consumption and purchasing power. It’s hard to put that genie back in the bottle. Like anything else maybe a happy medium is better.

I dont care which parent that is. Working parents are still "home" with a child. The real problem is parents in general suck when they are around. Really has nothing to do with work.

June 24, 20223 yr Just now, Paul852 said: For the better, sure. Statistically speaking, women are happier in homes raising families than being childless girl-bosses. That doesn't mean anyone shouldn't have the opportunity to do whatever they want, but, yes, people were happier when women participated less in the workforce.

Like anything else maybe a happy medium is better. I don't disagree with this at all. The problem is everyone thinks THEIR way is the best decision. We all need to accept not only our own decisions but everybody else's. Like you said, the judgement forces people into choices they may not have otherwise made. There is nothing wrong with one parent staying at home and nothing wrong with both parents working. I asked my wife several times if she'd like to stay home as money was never going to be an issue. She wants to work and there is nothing wrong with that.

Well this is about women with kids working. Not childless women.

NOt sure how "working Parents" are home with a child, I meant, when one person stays home, does not work and helps to actually raise the child.

She wants to work and there is nothing wrong with that. I don’t completely blame her. Full time parenting is HARD. I don’t get breaks or the ability to sit in front of my computer anymore and surf the web or post online and be social like I used to. My mistakes or lack of experience affect an actual human being. What I do appreciate is that it’s no longer seen as unmanly for dads to participate or pitch in at home. Because if paco didn’t, I would be running screaming back to work and what I previously believed was a "stressful” career.
June 24, 20223 yr it's a lot more difficult to live comfortably on a single income than it was "back in the old days". add to that the high divorce rates and high number of single moms & you're going to have a lot of mothers needing to work in order to survive.
