“So are you really advocating for excluding all women from the workforce entirely?”

Doing something “all” and “entirely” is almost always overdoing.

I want a return to a culture in which the woman’s contribution to the family is properly esteemed, in which her civilizing role is revered, in which the roles of wife and mother are correctly seen as essential to civilization.

There must be exceptions. For instance, if a woman’s husband were killed in the Korean War, leaving her with a small child, she should be able to get a job that would allow her, with frugality and sobriety, to raise that child.

But things like that must be the exceptions. The intact family must be seen as optimal.

I agree with you 100% after my Dad had a massive heart attack and died when I was 16 my brother 14 and sister 12 my Mom(Ruth) pulled us through a very difficult time. She just turned 91. She was a telephone operator at Leo Burnett for 16 years and before that At&t.

Looking back I can only admire her strength and courage rearing teenagers in the 80’s.

You are asking for a miracle and as much as I desire that same thing I am very doubtful we will see that day return. All we can do is be the best example for our children and those that know us.
