      I dated a guy who thought it unfair on its face for his potential future wife not to work at all, but had nothing further to say about that and it was kind of an emperor has no clothes moment for me

      Yeah I mean that framing seems pretty incorrect lol. But I had a hard time imagining that someone would want a career more than to be the one at home with the kids. I sort of still do tbh?

      I can identify with that for sure. Though I was never super into wanting kids either haha.

      Umm isn’t this a function of husband being able to make enough? Tradwifery is an upper-middle-class luxury lifestyle choice today. Most of America is caught in the two-income trap that Warren got famous researching. Median guys don’t expect to make enough to support this.

      I liked that book, it was clarifying for me. the UMC instantiation is wife like me, who works at will largely for pleasure, not to put gas in the car when hubby's sick or whatever.

      but homeschooling is big part of this! no education rat race = less bidding for positional goods gives family the freedom to live in safe places w/o A+ public schools (there are very many of these)

      I wonder what fraction of parents would produce better educational outcomes from homeschooling than they would get in the schools they would use in its absence And I'm thinking about some curious novel equilibria if home schooling becomes more prevalent

      I doubt K-12 is going anywhere anytime soon due to aligned & intrenched interests, but a legacy institution like that is more or less irrelevant to me until something unexpected happens like one of my kids really wants to be there despite (to spite?!) us

      So Spose the 90th through 95th percentiles of Americans somehow measured along Status defected to a homeschooling paradigm in large numbers Hunch is that homeschooling in that way starts to send a strong signal and <90th percentile Americans try to send the same if they can

          you're not wrong as postulated, but I don't think it will happen until the potential gains at stake *in status terms* are large. those people also have money and only 1 or 2 kids. private is a no-brainer.
