+98 Women who want to be ‘compensated' for their ‘unpaid childcare labour' are the female version of men saying they won't ‘babysit' their own kids, amirite?

Agree - if you have a kid, then man up and raise him to be a responsible, well rounded contributing member of society.

If they do it full time, they should get paid for it. Work is work. The pay should come from her husband who is the sole source of income in the family, not the government. Actually I do think it's a good idea for the government to sponsor a certain part of those costs because of how expensive raising kids are these days, and we're essentially raising what would be the country's future. But if the government were to give out money for raising a child, it should be on a per child basis rather than a per housewife basis.

However, if you take government money, then they are going to tell you what to do, where to go, etc.

What is 'unpaid childcare labour'?

by Anonymous 3 years ago

Some women say that basically the job of being a mother should be compensated by the government because they see it as them doing a job they're not paid for

That's ridiculous.

You think that's ridiculous you should hear how much some of them think they deserve. I've seen people on twitter suggesting motherhood is a $50K a year job. I don't really care I just find it hypocritical to get on a guy's ass for saying he doesn't want to babysit his own kids only to then say you deserve to be paid by the government for looking after your own kids.

Well if we pay her can we -the government via our taxes- take ownership of the child at 18? If we're going to put it those terms it sounds like raising cattle.

It's the first I've heard of it. Ya, that's obviously hypocritical. Worse than that, though, I feel bad for the kids whose parents have that kind of mentality - what a way to grow up.

Understand what you are saying, but IMO, a woman who doesn't want to raise her own kids perhaps shouldn't have any. I'm not talking about moms/women who have to work.

Watching your own kid without your employer paying you.

Why would an employer pay people for watching their own kids? That makes no sense.
