Seems like an interesting point of view on marriage and pregnancy

> Some parents can make the two working parent household work while also being involved with their kids. I don't know how, but it happens here and there. I will tell you, it's not the norm. Usually one parent is part-time or doing some sort of consulting or flexible role if they are working at all. Generally speaking though, a two parent working household is a disaster for kids. Parents are too swept up in their careers to notice what's going on.

Nope. I work with teenagers and this simply is not true. It's an entirely unfair generalization. Plenty of people make two income earning homes work. It's all about priorities. I also know plenty of home schoolers who have a whole host of problems from spending too much time with their parents. Try telling a home school mom that her son is a bully. I dare you.

> I get that by high school we tend to think kids are basically little adults now but they aren't. They are being faced with immense peer pressure and tough choices and raging hormones yet this is the time parents most often check out.

I'll agree that this is a problem. It's one reason I love teenagers so much, because I can feel like the only one who does. I still know plenty of working parents who don't have this problem, though, and are still attentive to their teenage children. Our teachers are overworked and even abused, so I think this is just a common blind spot. I work in a public library and see a huge spectrum of teens, from special needs to high performing, poor to privileged, troubled to coddled, home school to public to private. If anything, I think this is a more accurate indictment on the public school system and the way we treat teachers than it is on dual-income households.

Staying home can be great for a family... just like both parents working can be great for many others. Neither are the exception. Both groups can be selfish and have poor priorities. Both can be awesome.

Yes it's hard being pregnant back to back . Have had 3 sons myself. Felt this way at one point or two in my breeding years . It's tiresome emotionally and physically at times. Having a good supportive husband helps combat these feelings .

Holy shit. I think you're like the first non crazy bitch I found on the internet. (Lauren Southern excluded.)

I'm so black pilled that I'm not sure if you're trolling. Can you elaborate on your "radicalization"? Besides the burnout of your job, can you talk about the bigger picture? I'm sure you were "educated" in a lot politically correct dogma. Were you able to gain any useful knowlege? What exactly do educators train for and study? Can you give me a layman's introduction to pedagogy?

Family is hugely important but it is possible to exaggerate this idea.

There are kids with disorders that can't be miraculously cured by a good family. I grew up knowing a few kids who had mental illnesses and stay at home moms -- they continued to have serious problems into adulthood. This piece veers too far towards blaming the parents for everything their children do.
