caring for children is a job that is paid for if done outside of the home, so why isn't a mother considered a part of the workforce if she does the job? Social Security, a pension, healthcare, all in her name, not hubby.

I won't hold my breath on this since the real issue is not about caring for mothers but wanting to "put women in their place."

and anyway, the myth of the stay-at-home mom is something the middle class experienced for a time. if the repukes want this to be possible, why do they pass laws to undermine the middle and lower classes?
