I sort of agree, because no one should be shamed. The issue I have with the statement is that current “trad wife” trends are at best exclusive and at their worst completely toxic. I definitely don’t want to see that either.
Let’s just leave it at: let every woman choose themselves and make it as easy as possible for those who do want to do paid work.
Lets promote stay at home dads too. No reason to make this a gendered thing
Or we could have 2 day shifts of 20 hours and parents could each work one, that way neither is particularly vulnerable to financial abuse and neither has to sacrifice as much of raising their children.
Stay at home parents should get paid. If free daycare would cost the government $20 a day, offer stay at home parents $10 a day and you save money while allowing people to raise their kids instead of strangers.
Interesting point. We should re-normalize the idea of the stay-at-home mom.
Let’s be real, the people who promoted women going to work were almost always willing to shame those who decided not to. Let’s stop doing that.
As a stay-at-home mom, you need to let people make that choice.
Having to do something because of finances isn’t a choice.

Well you see it’s actually empowering because it’s the only way they can afford it. /s
