Would the world be a better place if women returned home to take care of house and family and men were the only ones to work?

@amk22 That’s unfortunate. Women need to let other women alone. My mother had a career and it was other women who thought she needed to stay home with us, too.

@bijouxbroussard well now it seems to be the opposite!

@bijouxbroussard this is a good point, and let’s not forget what constitutes women who CAN stay home because the family can afford it..... my husband works two jobs, we survive just fine but aren’t going on many vacations, and not shopping at the mall. Hell I don’t ever get new clothes or anything unless it’s my bday or Christmas. Not everyone is willing to sacrifice those things. And not every woman WANTS to stay home. It’s incredibly stressful, that’s for sure. If I had my husbands day job I would have it a lot easier.... then again I don’t have the pressure of making sure bills get paid. It all ends up working out.

@amk22 It’s good that your family has a system that works for you all.

@QuixoticSoul Yes my husband works two jobs to keep us afloat but it’s worth it as far as both of us are concerned. It depends on what sacrifices you’re willing to make if it’s important to you to have a parent home instead of working.
