[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She is not wrong about the nannies raising the kids…[/quote] Why encourage your daughter to go to college then? You don’t need a college degree to be a SAHM.[/quote] NP, but so she can work before having kids, after her kids are grown, if her husband dies or leaves her, or wants to homeschool her kids or just be an educated person? Or maybe she’ll never marry or have kids & doesn’t know that yet at 18. I mean, come on. [/quote] Women stay in the workforce and hire nannies because American workplaces “punish” women for leaving the workforce to raise their kids. It’s called the Motherhood Penalty and has been well-studied and documented It’s weird that Heather MacDonald criticizes women for working, but doesn’t do anything to tackle this issue that would allow American women to stay home to raise their kids… https://fortune.com/recommends/banking/the-motherhood-penalty/ [/quote] I’m a SAHM who realizes that many women don’t want to stay home to raise their children full time. I can’t tell you how judgy and dismissive people are of those of us who do not have paid employment outside the home - including conservatives who think it’s just what women are and that we’re not very bright, and for that reason I wouldn’t encourage anyone to stay home with their kids. Back on topic: obviously the DEI obsession is part of the right wing crap-o-sphere of nonsense. DEI, CRT, “porn in schools” excuse for banning books about Black history and women’s history, drag queens, immigrant caravans (that disappear seemingly overnight after the election is done; guys, use some critical thinking as to why that keeps happening) Dr. Seuss, Keurig, obsessions with Kaepernick taking a knee, “he should have complied”, political correctness… one can only come to the conclusion that Republicans aren’t thoughtful people. They get mad about whatever they’re told to get mad about and don’t question it a whit further. It’s all about grievances and othering and making sure that none of these Republican voters ever wakes up to the fact that it’s billionaires vs the rest of us, and they keep siding with the billionaires.
