[quote=Anonymous]Wow the lack of understanding of reality to some people is amazing. As if it's just as simple as 'a parent stays home'. In a system with no real universal pensions, no universal health care, no paid parental leave, massive student loan debt do you can have a chance at success, the assumption that anyone can 'just make it work' is so beyond naieve. Also, having lived in 'high tax europe' there is something to be said for how they do it. Childcare, maternity leave, part time career paths all help families of every status 'make it work'. Also dc doesn't require anyone partake in this. Don't want to? Don't. It's a great option. I'd rather save $24k a year to help my child pay for college than another year of preschool. [/quote]
