How would farmers get four month’s paid leave to skip work?
How are their kids turning out? Pretty good last I heard.
Never though I would disagree with townhall so vehemently.
No one is FORCED to take a high level corporate job that pays VERY well but keeps them very busy.
Thanks gubmint but we’ll figure it out on our own.
What’s the demographics in Norway? Just curious.
Yeah, State sponsored mandates are always the answer. Riiiiiight.
How many Muslim Fathers are involved. Do they wear head scarfs to hide their identity? Wait!-— Maybe the Mothers are disguised as Fathers. That makes more sense. Wait!... the Mothers are not allowed out by themselves. I give up.
Back in the day, up thru the mid 60s it was all fine. Mom stayed home and raised and card for the kids while dad went to work.
Women are far better suited to raise children and give them the love and security their genetic maternal instincts provide. Men as father’s are certainly necessary in the family equation but in s different way. When the lines between male and female began to blur the problems began. women wanted to be like men because they believed men had it made going off to work everyday while he poor women were “stuck” at home with the kids. What’s more important than the kids? Are they not our future? When did it become punishment to be a mother and a mom?
I am the first to admit I would have failed terribly at mothering our kids. My wife otoh took to it as if she were born to it, which she was. There is a reason why children and grown men will instinctively seek out mom, in times of crises whether emotional or physical. At birth the umbilical cord connecting mother to child is cut but there is another more powerful connection which in most children will forever bind them to their mom’s throughout the yrs.
Mom’s tend the home fires while dad’s slay the beast and guard the homestead. It is the way it is supposed to be. That it is no longer this way is the prime reason we find ourselves where we are today.
Can we make it retroactive?
Yes...including making the kids go back to that (wonderful) age.
What’s caused Townhall to turn into snowflake central?
In parts of Europe you could be charged with hate crime just for writing that, or at least be reprimanded by your ISP.
Feminism and their never ending push to get women out of the house and into the workplace is what has destroyed the family and the future generations.
We could never do that. It’s racist. Black kids have no fathers.
What is Norway self selecting in the way of Father’s?
They can experiment with all sorts of stuff while they’re living under our defense bubble.
Exactly?
And yet marriage still isn’t emphasized.
That dread apostrophe changed the sense.
I think the policy
#1 Promotes Government Dependency
#2 Continues the rush to blur the distinctions between Mom & Dad, distorting the role model
#3 Places a tremendous burden on Companies especially small companies
#5 Erodes the work ethic
#6 Encourages the tacit admission that you need to give a monetary reward to have Fathers engage with their children as well as the suggestion that all men if paid should & would want to be the daily caretaker for 12-18m old children.
#7 Certainly pretty far from the Viking past.
It’s a “Brave New World” that should have stayed as a bad dream. If we are wise we can learn from their decline.
Agreed.
Think what you want, but if some guy takes 4 months off from a job, it WILL be held against him.
Norway has like 5 million people, and outside of North Sea oil and herring fishing, almost zilch economy.
Cannot even compare to the United States.
More Socialism, this time from Townhall.
