[quote=Anonymous]A "village" was when women/mother stayed home and took care of their children and their house. There was a was a time when severall generations of family either lived next door or with each other but this died POST WWII when women--all ages--- began working outside the home. Children were "latchkey" kids.niw, women can afford nannies and daycare for their children. Grandmother's finally realized that they raised their kids and you can raise yours be suse they are still young enough to travel and enjoy life. Hillary Clinton wrote a book, A village and other lessons children teach us" and the Village craze started. Interestingly. Hillary did not stay home with her daughter. Her mother lived with them at the WH but Chelsea was too old for a nanny. So, a village is s a group of people who help each other but it is only a village if all are SAHM. Otherwise, WOHM take advantage of SAHM..[/quote]
