The idea that women who stay home with their children are "wasting" their education is one of feminisms greatest and dirtiest lies. What are children, chopped liver?

I don't disagree but it's not for everyone. I've met some women who were horrible mothers. It just wasn't in their nature. It didn't make them worthless though. Their talents lay elsewhere.

Many men are good carpenters. I am not. But if society expected me to be a carpenter all day, I'd be unhappy and feel my strengths were wasted. It doesn't mean carpentry is a waste or a bad thing. It just means I know my limitations.

I've no beef with people who choose not to raise children, except when they choose to elevate themselves with lies that denigrate both children and the women who choose to mother them.

Activities that Betty Friedan devoted her live to, sadly. The secret agenda of communism/feminism in elevating work over family under the guise of "self-actualization" is to push children into publicly funded daycare and schooling so they can control the pap that is poured into their little skulls of mush.

So you would not buy all the tools and then decide to dump carpentry, right? There are, indeed, women who are not cut out to be mothers, but they need to decide that before they bring a little one into the world and then dump the poor thing in daycare.
