While to some extent your point is valid, I hope you honestly don’t believe that the reason a lot of couples both work is because they want to drive a Mercedes and buy $15 hosiery. If so, you are living in a bizarre world of your own making.
While certainly there are lots of folks out there that could live a simpler life and have mom staying home, others do have to work. I know of lady that has had to work all these years and would have loved to stay home with her children but could not, simply because her husband never held down a job longer than a couple of years and never carried health insurance. Sure, she could’ve divorced him, but that wouldn’t have made things better and she’s Catholic and loves him and it just wasn’t an option.
I am sure others on here could cite many, many examples of other situations. So, don’t be so judgmental. I feel a little bit sorry for you if you really think this way.
What can I say? I say “apples”, you and people like you hear “oranges”. The world in large part, is loused up because of disobedience to God and ignoring plain scriptural teaching. . that goes for the man who would not provide for his own and is worse than infidel. Sin is in back of most of our problems.
