this is an insertion cuz i can’t not add it. then you can continue your discussion –
i truly believe everyone who can learn forever, should. I would be thrilled if my kids all chose to be sincere, honest, legit full time learners. Anyone who can’t learn, I wish they could learn part time, in big slots. This is what I want- seperate from what is financially possible.
Having said that and made clear where I stand – the insertion here is that there are so many fights about women being breadwinners or sole supporters etc. They have turned themselves into career people instead of just “working to support the family”. The big problem that there seems to be no answer to is WHO IS RAISING THE KIDS?????
I don’t think *any* child ever should be raised by anyone other than their parents – and every time a child goes to the babysitter, it should be because that was decided to be best for THAT situation. kind of like a heter or a b’dieved. These girls are being conditioned (in the more yeshivish and modern both) to expect their children to be raised by babysitters while they choose a work schedule that fits their needs.
We argue about what the motives for working are and who is pushing it, but all these kids are being left behind.
