The radio host said that, not Vance.
If you listen, Vance did not disparage his mil, he praised her. The "why didnt she keep working and help pay for childcare?" comment was to say that society puts more value on the $$.
This thread is really taking comments (not even said by Vance) out of context.

No, because that’s the theory that those grandmothers are valuable in themselves with their knowledge as well as a pair of hands. JD - or, for the pedants among us, the podcaster with whom he was agreeing - was saying that those women’s sole value, since they’re no longer breeding, is to provide care for the newly bred.
or just a twisted way of saying that grandparents can play a significant role in lives of their grandchildren, like it takes a village to raise a child, not just a nuclear family?

Funny how "it takes a village" didn't cause this much outrage, yet it's basically saying the same thing.

I don't remember it being a post menopausal female village.
Or any implication that caring for children is that age group's sole purpose.

Does he refer to his mother this way? Will he refer to his wife this way when she hits that stage? Weirdo.
He gives me incel vibes.
I doubt he refers to his mother that way. His mother was an abusive, drug-addicted, unstable woman. For that reason, his grandmother took over raising him when he was a teenager.
May be that's one of the trait which attracted him to Usha, an intelligent and responsible woman who was ideal mther material in every way and had stable parental role models.
Usha was likely literally the first girl that ever showed interest in him. And the set up was under the advisement of two gatekeeper professors who controlled clerkships she wanted and a book deal he sought. He is a creepy incel in a de facto arranged marriage.
