You mean people like me, who are very well-read, can discuss most current events with intelligence and some background knowledge, and also earn significant passive income from my dividends?

I'm doing great, thank you. Feel free to think whatever you want about me. [/quote]

That fact that you replied sort of indicates you care what people think.

I only judge those that do not contribute in any way to society - volunteer work, pta, kids activities, anything. If all they do is care for their kids, then I judge them as incredibly selfish and lazy. [/quote]

And what if they're looking after a child with special needs? Or another relative? What if they themselves have a chronic illness and cannot work? 
What if the special needs or illness in question is invisible to you?

Judging based on incomplete information is not wise, PP. You never know what's going on in people's lives. Have a little respect and humility.[/quote]

🙄 that’s exactly what I was saying - they contribute NOTHING to society. Going down the tangent of disabilities for the parent is way off OP’s topic and you know it.

I’m talking about people who get the non special needs kids to school, hit the gym/spa/nail grab lunch with friends, pick up kids and drive them to activities. Then go home and do it all over the next day for 18 years. Then continue to do nothing outside of their own pleasures. Completely selfish. [/quote]

How stupid do you have to be to write such a response… raising healthy families contributes to the collective good of society. Healthy families make a healthy, balanced, functional society.

We as a nation value don’t value families, as a result our country is headed down the drain. Mental health issues, obesity epidemic , emotional hangups, kids getting into trouble, drugs etc.

A parent at home, whether a mom or a dad is really important to make sure that the household is running smoothly and kids are staying on track. These days with the WFH trend a lot of parents are doing better in terms of home cooked meals, spending more time as a family, less stress and more exercise.

I wish we were a rich enough nation where one parent could stay home or we were rich enough that people didn’t have to work 2 jobs to put food on the table.
