[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's because having children is not a requirement for your job.[/quote]

It’s this dear.

OP must be a millennial to ask such a question.[/quote]

+1 SMH.

We're all doomed.[/quote]

Why is OP a bad question or suggestion?

Of course let's not ever question anything or push for small reforms that might make having a family even slightly more affordable.[/quote]

The problem is that OP isn't trying to make "having a family more affordable." She's trying to make being a doctor in a highly lucrative profession more lucrative. Those are not the same thing, in terms of social goods. [/quote]

What if some of those women working two jobs are doing childcare. Wouldn’t it be nice if their employers were incentivized to pay them on the books so they qualify for social security, unemployment insurance, etc?

And if their employers own a business, wouldn’t it be nice if child caregivers qualified for the same benefits as other employees including retirement matching and health insurance?[/quote]
