[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think everyone has confused working with life. It is not your life...you have a job in order to make money.
Philosophies from people like Sheryl Sandberg and the Yahoo CEO have actually set women backwards. ..not forward. It's actually a backlash against the life of a woman. Family life has been vilified.  Things are not easier for women..they are harder. You have to prove yourself all the time.  Even if you are a SAHM...you have to account for your time and prove your worth.

[b]Yes...I think all our kids are, and will likely continue to be fucked up as parenthood is not the priority. .it's narcissm that is the priority. [/b]

[b]I am a liberal agnostic and I cringe when I read or see the Duggars...crazy belief system, but, yeah, they have great well adjusted kids.  All 19 of them. I wonder. ....[/b]

I don't think parenthood was a priority in the 60s or 70s either -- even though it was more about SAHMs back then; most households would throw a casserole on the table at dinner time, but aside from that the kid were roaming the streets and playing in the neighborhood all day long. I don't know what the priorities were back then, but people did NOT dote over kids the way they do now -- and those kids who are now middle aged are pretty much doing fine. So now the priorities are more about work and money -- the kids will still turn out fine. Though I think it's the narcissism and obsession with picture taking that'll f-- them up more than women having careers that are not merely 9-5 jobs; sorry but I feel like most people can't live their life unless they're showing you on FB/IG what they ate, when they went to the bathroom etc.

I suggest you look into the Duggars before you hold them up as a paradigm of well adjusted.  I'm sorry they're totally uneducated (and no I don't think all homeschool has to be ineffective); you've got 12 yr olds reading at a 5 yr old level and kids roaming all day when they should be learning. Then when they turn 18 -- bam -- time for a courtship to a similar guy with a belief that they should procreate as much as possible and God will provide. Not the greatest way to raise kids at least not in 2015.[/quote]
