[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Feminism is about choices - if a woman truly wants to stay home and take care of her family, and her situation is such that she can afford to (and not be in peril of being abandoned), then good for her. Same for a man. Neither should be required to stay home, nor should either be required to have a career assuming a spouse is willing and able to provide. Unfortunately in this country we devalue caregiving, for all ages. The reality is that someone has to take care of kids and the house (and eventually aging parents). Either you do it yourself or you outsource it.[/quote] Love this comment, thanks. I also think it's really unfortunate we've structured things that flexible jobs can be hard to come by for many. Part time work can be really hard to find. I suspect a lot of parents would like to have more of a balance between work and caring for children, but we're often forced to pick one or the other.[/quote]
