What the article seems to be implying, though I’m not sure that’s what the NYT wanted to imply, is that in order for women to stay home and raise the kids without unduly hurting themselves, there has to be firm legal support for marriage within the society, i.e., getting rid of no-fault-divorce laws and re-criminalizing adultery, so that there is a safer environment for stay-at-home spouses.
With our current, maritally-unstable society, is it any wonder that so many formerly-successful women end up alone and in the gutter, after choosing to be stay-at-home moms?
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
