[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely women contribute to this problem. Particularly right wing uneducated Christian women who still believe their role is mother/homemaker, supporting their man. [/quote]

I'm a left wing and very educated but begrudgingly admit that my role as mother and homemaker has been exponentially better for my children and my husband's career. Which means better for my life but short term and long term. We could have switched roles but while I could have made what DH makes (which is a lot), he would have been mediocre at raising the kids and keeping our house running. [b]American society is barely set up for 2 working parents[/b], let alone 2 working parents who want to have high-achieving, well-adjusted kids and happy parents. That's why the patriarchy is alive and well. [/quote]

Which society is better for working parents?  Friends in Europe struggle with the same issues and they have much lower salaries that don’t allow for as much paid help. I’m not sure there is really a solution as long as there are only 24 hours in a day.  [/quote]
