    I, too, think all people should be able to raise kids. That society makes it practically impossible is the problem.

    You might call me old-fashioned, but being able to have one person at home to care for the kids and actually raise them is something that I consider a cornerstone.

    Why put kids in the world, just to have to provide for them and have other people raise them, because you cannot afford to do this yourself?

      It’s one of the great scams that industry pulled off - deriding staying home with a family as somehow failing and getting both parents out to the grind. Then selling it as progressive. I’m in favour of equal opportunity in the workplace, but we’ve been left with the worst of both worlds.
