I think the key issue here is that the government is not valuing the work that stay-at-home mums do. That is the issue here. All of a sudden there seems to be this valuing of paid work above and beyond the work that stay-at-home mums do. The government is not valuing stay-at-home mums and the work that they do in looking after kids.
