[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of the people I know in their 20s have no interest in having kids at all. [/quote] +1. There is no cultural incentive to have kids young. And telling people they should just have a SAHP and live inexpensively, no, it’s notoriously difficult to get a good job after time off as a parent. Of course people on DCUM will have anecdotal experience that they made it work, but it’s just not what everyone wants to do. [/quote] It also promotes inequity between men and women which in turn creates more abusive households. It is like we forgot the horrible effects of having a SAHM. Yes, there are SAHDs, but those are rare. Does abuse happen all the time? Of course not. But if the guy is shouldering all the stress of working and bringing home money and the woman can’t spend money without asking him for some, it creates a huge power gap between the couple. And that in turn generates more abuse. [/quote]
