I’ll Probably Get A Lot Of Backlash For Saying This, BUT WHEN WOMEN STARTED WORKING OUTSIDE THE HOME, Society Started To FALL APART!

It’s heartache to you, and to your offspring. And to society.

You are correct . I told my boyfriend whenever we get married I want to stay home with the kids.

I’ll Probably Get A Lot Of Backlash For Saying This, BUT WHEN WOMEN STARTED WORKING OUTSIDE THE HOME, Society Started To FALL APART!
And now all hell is breaking loose it appears.

This isn’t an indictment against women, as I am a woman myself (see avatar) but after contemplating this subject, I think what I’m saying has a lot of validity.

You can agree or disagree.

These are just my thoughts on the matter.

Since the 1970’s, there has been an acceleration towards society’s decline

Since the 1970’s:

1) abortion was legalized (1973)
2) the feminist movement :” In 1971, feminist Gloria Steinem joined Betty Friedan and Bella Abzug in founding the National Women’s Political Caucus“
3) in the 70’s there was a push to get women working outside the home. This was pushed in the media via television shows such as “ The Mary TylerMoore Show” (1970-77) “ one Day At A Time” (1975-1984)
“ Alice” (1976-1985”,”Maude” (1972-78) and on and on.
4) Ms. Magazine was founded in 1972.
5) Divorce was made more acceptable in the 1970’s. No fault divorce came into effect in 1970.
6) Daycare for children started to become popular due to more women working outside the home
7) the use of ADHD drugs such as Ritalin became popular in the 1970’s and onward.
8) Explosion iof sexually transmitted diseases ( started in the late 60’s)
9) Pornography....we know how has exploded

There is definitely a correlation between the traditional family structure breaking down and society breaking down which has resulted in divorce, ADHD chiidren’s behavior, a growing disrespect between the sexes: women against men, and men against women.

While I am not saying that the “ Ozzie And Harriet” lifestyle is the one everyone should be living, as that was a manufactured Hollywood illusion anyway, what I am saying is that all these factors have contributed to a breakdown in society.

If you have women working outside the home, who’s watching the children?

SOMEBODY ELSE.

And our out of control children are a RESULT of the neglect we see in society today.

-Women who don’t know how to act like women...ie snowflakes, who DEMAND their rights but get no respect, tattoos, shaving their hair, sexually irresponsible etc.

-Men who turn to the homosexual lifestyle because they don’t have good male role models due to divorce
-men rejecting their role as providers ...lonely men who only find satisfaction in temporary sexual encounters but only crave more and more

All because Mom (and dad) are not there to instill his/his values into their children.
If mom is working a full time job too, BOTH parents are exhausted, so it be comes a tug of war between who does the chores, giving children supervision, baths, putting dinner on the table etc.etc. Etc. which leads to fighting, lack of sex, frustration

Which’s leads to a disordered home and eventually a broken home, divorce, unhappy children, unhappy parents. Unhappy society.

Personally, I know when I gave up a lucrative career in the fashion industry, over time I have seen the positive result of my choosing to become a stay at home mother. And a support to my husband.


I enjoy making him tasty meals that he likes and makes me feel appreciated when he likes them, for example.

Simple enough right? So simple we tend to dismiss these traditional things.

Having a clean well ordered home..who has the energy and time to have this when you are working a full time job outside the home?

Well fed disciplined children who understand right from wrong.

Yes, initially, we had to downsize. And sacrifice some of the extras we were enjoying.
But now my family is ABUNDANTLY blessed with more than we want or need. You make adjustments. And it works.

Who needs a McMansion and chasing after all the goodies when you have PEACE and contentment?

I am happier than I have ever been. God has blessed my husband career more than ever and I am seeing the fruit of our discipline and sacrifice...

Hubby is blessed and feels respected because of his providing for the family.
I am not saying I am the poster child for domestic bliss, or that I am “all that”, because my hubby and I have had to work out and thru our differences. This takes time.

But in perspective, it has been time well invested and I wouldn’t want it any other way.
Basically, what I am saying is it can be done and if enough catch on to “going back to basics” we might see a lot happier, well adjusted people who contribute to society rather than tear it down.

And lest anyone thinks I am knocking my own sex, this thread is not addressed towards single women or divorced women, who, due to circumstances, have to work because the ex can’t or won’t pay child support and because they need to put food on the table...

No, this is addressed towards those who think chasing the almighty dollar is where it’s at...because it’s not...it only brings heartache when your career is your only friend, and you allow someone else to raise your own flesh and blood.

It’s heartache to you, and to your offspring. And to society.

When was this?

Women have always had to work.

I know 80 and 90 year olds that tell me about their jobs. A few of them worked at sewing places. My mom worked in an office, when she retired she worked in a court house.

Poor people have to work.

Ok. But still you weren’t responsible for his bad choices and behavior.

If you were helping your husband and he still chose to be irresponsible, how is that your fault is all I’m asking?

I don't totally agree with this. My wife and I both worked, but it only provided a better quality of life for our entire family. When not working we fully engaged in keeping the family unit tight, and functional. Way back when, women always contributed to work that benefited the family,, whet ever it was (farming, ranching, or what ever). Today women think that all they have to do is stay at home, cook a few meals, watch TV, and gossip with the neighbors. this may not be the case for all, but where I live it is. If both work, like we did, both should contribute to chores at home...Things in society started falling apart when God was taken out of everything.....

Oh and BTW when the divorce rate skyrocketed and when men started to bail from their responsibilities, this did help matters at all..

People always get in trouble for telling the truth....

Welfare
Child Support not being taxed as income
Oppressive Income Taxes
Every Liberal Ideal and Movement
Animal Rights
Chicks with Dicks
Dudes having Periods
Climate Change
BLM
Etc......

The goal is Destroying Christian Values and Societal Norms which leads to Anarchy and War....

Why you ask??

So the ones who think they are special can stay in control.....

This is why they occasionally get attacked, like pouring gasoline on a red ant hill...

It wasn't the exact moment that women started working outside the home that the downfall happened. As women started to go to work, the ruling elite devalued the dollar and raised the cost of living. That's what really caused the downward spiral.

There was a time when one single salary was enough to provide for a whole family. When that was the case, women had the choice to stay home or work and bring in a little extra money for their family. Part-time jobs were popular for women, back then.

However, when the powers that be effectively raised the cost of living, it took the option stay home away from many women who would have otherwise wanted to stay at home and raise their children. It forced almost all women to go out and work, as two salaries were necessary to raise a family.

That was by design. When being a stay-at-home mom became a rarity, children began to be raised and shaped by media and the public school system. When that happened, many of the ideals that had been driven into people over the generations died - and that's when things really went down the toilet.

Women would stay home if men would be breadwinners.

Unfortunately there's alot of loser moocher men out there who can't provide.

Guarantee there are more goldigging, female crotch-peddlers out there...

And how old are YOU to be lecturing me? What do YOU know of it? It's not only my experience but that of my parents who both grew up in the Depression - my father well before that, and my grandparents and all the other elderly people around me. I am telling you WOMEN DID NOT GENERALLY WORK OUTSIDE THE HOME. It was considered embarrassing because it meant your husband was a LOSER who could not support you. Yes, during WW2 itself women worked outside but that was because the men were at war, of course. Before that women who had small children DID NOT WORK OUTSIDE THE HOME as a rule.

You literally don't know what you're talking about.

I didn't help him recover, never went to meetings, safety pinned my lunch money in my pajama pocket to keep him from spending it, never left the apartment to follow him at night when he left, never had him arrested for domestic violence. Just packed my bags and left w our baby after he signed the divorce papers. It was all over in less than a year.

If I had stayed, gone to meetings, offered support, had him arrested for violence, he might have changed seeing how much I was willing to fight for his recovery and our marriage.

thank you for asking.
