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?Brian C. Robertson is the author of 'There's No Place Like Work: How Business, Government, and Our Obsession with Work Have Driven Parents from Home', published 2000 under ISBN 9781890626181 and ISBN 189062618X.
