Thank you Elza. Yes, the problem is deeply systemic and it does indeed start with Americans having turned their backs on the Creator, his morality, his way of living, putting our families first etc. As an example, if women put their domestic responsiblities first, then children wouldn't be educated in government schools, and the elderly wouldn't have been in nursing homes, where they were murdered, left to die alone without their loved ones around them. It's all a Marxist nightmare, and we fell for it -- in the name of "equality" and "careers", nice new shiny cars, fancy clothes, and oversized homes where the cleaning lady lives.

I'm no feminist as you can tell. My mother was forced to be a career woman because of her circumstances and she was extremely successful, respected in her profession, earning a high income. Her dream, however, was to be a wife and stay-at-home mom. She told me years ago, that feminism was going to be one of the causes of the downfall of America. That women would eventualy have to work to put food on the table because so many people in the work force would necessarily drive down wages.

That doesn't mean women have to only be barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen. I wouldn't want to go back to the days when women were viewed as property and were denigrated as less intelligent than men. There are ways to have a successful career while still putting family first. The most honorable profession is that of wife and mother....raising the next generation to be contributors rather than greedy, selfish takers.

Wow Dvorah, I could not have said it better! I too was indoctrinated never realizing it and focused on a professional career which left me w very little time to meet a suitable mate...the clock ticked on and I found it harder and harder to find a like minded individual for marriage. It just did not happen and now I am retired and doing well financially having long accepted it. In retrospect I can see how the program affected my generation just as you stated. I am not unhappy and have more time than others for certain pursuits but it could have been different and I always wonder...

I always viewed a career as a consolation prize for a hard working, clever girl who was too homely and awkward to land a husband in high school or college.
