Now wives take the pill until their late thirties, early forties, expecting their bodies to magically start doing what they've been telling it not to do for decades so they can have a baby when their careers are ready, only to send said baby to the sitter six weeks post birth.

I was in daycare from six months to nine years. Thankfully, I spent my summers with my great grandmother, and was heavily exposed to my great aunts and uncles, who exemplified good values to me. Because of that, I stayed home to raise my children, and make a home for my family.

The silent economic inflation of the late 70’s in the US was that moms went to work. Wages went up but it took two incomes in 1980 to buy the same groceries that one income would buy in 1970.

Sadly, government schools do manage to transmit some cultural values and enforce a measure of peer-transmission, Lord of the Flies style.

We women are so "strong" that we bought in to the lie that our God-given ability to nurture a family was "keeping us down", and that we'd be better served working all day while our children want for us and our husbands go unattended.

You got it right 100%

I believe the switch in perception of male protector to authoritarian in the nuclear households where women were extensions of matriarchal lines, with extensive, respected housekeeping traditions, wet nursing skills that all have been commercialized, changed western values.

Times were different when we grew up. When mom worked, she expected us to keep house, do chores, etc. She made time to SEE that we did our homework. Most parents have unplugged, thinking the schools know best!

Exactly. And besides, most women that work are not happy and transmit their unhapiness to their children.

Men are also dumping the kids on daycare and need to take responsibility for this as well
