It’s common sense that having a stay at home mother rather than a mother who has a career and can support herself and her family is better? Because I’m a working mother who brings home the bacon and my mom was a divorced former stay at home mother in middle age who could barely support herself let alone her kids so I’m just wondering how that’s common sense.

yeah i hope you’re smart enough to figure out that making money and healthy childhood development are two completely different things lol

biology doesn’t care about money

Right and I am smart enough to look at actual research and not just parrot right wing talking points shaming working mothers, unlike yourself. Fyi I work because I have to, like most other working mothers, and sorry to tell you but my kid is thriving and will be better off than I was with a non college educated stay at home mom who couldn’t support herself post divorce. Would love to ask if you understand how poverty and parental socioeconomic status (which is tied to jobs and education level) affects childhood outcomes but somehow I doubt you do.
