[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]19 pages in this thread and still not clear what OP wants?  Do you want a paycheck?  Retirement benefits?  Basically, some form of payment from taxpayers?

That's not going to happen.  What might happen, hopefully, is universal childcare, so that we can get more women into the workforce.  But no, you're not going to get paid to stay home.[/quote]

[b]So caring for children only has economic value when it’s not done by their parent[/b]s?

I work and have three kids, but I can see the faulty logic.

In reality, we will get neither universal childcare or paychecks for care work. Instead, we will get a cratering birthdate and the continued unraveling of society. [/quote]

Where did PP say that?

The only way your logic makes sense if you define valuable as something you get paid to do.  And I see that faulty logic.

Basically, that logic would do away with all charity and volunteering.  We would as a society only do those things we are financially compensated for.  Is that what you are advocating?[/quote]
