Well, I think it's not going to be quick.
It's going to be a multigenerational project.
But I think if you give women the choice, I believe Simone de Beauvoir when she said that if you give women the choice, more and more will choose to be moms and stay home at least more.
But what if they can't?
In this situation we're specifically talking about where they require two incomes in order to pay the bills.
So when Andrew and I got together and we had two kids of our own, we've now got a house full of kids.
He's, you know, starting his career.
He's making OK money, but nothing crazy.
And we had to like move out to the country where it's cheaper.
I learned how to be a firearms instructor because I could teach a class on a Saturday, only be gone for one day of the week and make like two thousand bucks.
So I could make like a week's worth of money only working one day a week on the day that he's home.
So like my advice to people, I'm not super huge on giving advice because it depends.
There's a lot going on that I don't know your situation, but you have to get creative.
Try to find things you can do on the side, things you can do from home.
