Summary

Robertson asks why it has become the norm for mothers to work despite abundant evidence that their children suffer because of it. A fundamental change in our understanding of work has stripped the family of its natural priority. Feminists get only some of the blame. The "family-friendly" policies of business and government have stacked the deck against one-income families. There is no secret to balancing work and family: work should be at the service of the family.
-- Not enough daycare -- or far too much?
-- Why were feminists once against mothers at work?
-- Why do many families need two incomes?
