[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What percentage of St. Albans mom work?  It seems like once women hit their mid-30's at all the area private schools. many choose to stay home.  That's always surprising to me considering how many extremely well educated and liberal moms are at these schools. [/quote]

Well your premise is in incorrect. St. Albans is not mostly liberal moms. It is mostly republicans in my two sons grades. The administration and Cathedral may be more liberal leaning but the current parents and boys are not. NCS, Sidwell, Holton, and GDS are where you will find more liberal moms. [/quote]

If this is true, then it makes sense that they would be more likely to prescribe to more traditional gender roles than some other schools.[/quote]

How silly.[b] True feminism is when women have the CHOICE to work or not work [/b]and can choose what is best for them without feeling societal pressures one way or the other. Get with the times. I have done both and now choose not to work and I am liberal and educated. [/quote]

Wrong.  Women providing unpaid labor to men does NOT support women. It continues to enable the patriarchy to rely on women’s unpaid labor to advance their own agenda.  [/quote]
THANK YOU.

And can we please stop acting like “managing the household” is a thing? It’s just .... living. Stop trying to make fetch happen.[/quote]

I think some people on here are angry they have to work today. I love not working and my only regret is that I didn’t quit sooner! I actually have time now for me and finally have time to do all of my favorite things and spend stress free time with my kids. How sad that you consider spending time with your kids as free labor. That’s the problem right there. [/quote]

That’s great you’re happy.  But again, you’re NOT helping women by staying home and enabling the patriarchy.  [/quote]
