It has always been a basic tenet of feminism and the so-called 'women's rights' movements that a woman's entitlements to work and pursue a career are significantly more important than the welfare of their children. The poor little nippers have to be abandoned into the much vaunted child care at the very earliest opportunity.The negative consequences of this in our society can easily be seen. For some, there really is no alternative; for some the father could be used but usually isn't and for many the decision is taken out of the purest selfishness.
Labour's Children's Minister Beverley Hughes, recently admitted that her government's policy of pushing babies straight into childcare after birth "is not in their best interests."
This situation is of course, complicated by vast numbers of single mothers created by the short sightedness of Major's administration and that of the hapless Blair. 'Allowing single motherhood as a career choice' MUST be abandoned as policy.
A return to Christian values would help as Christian teaching always requires responsibility for ones actions If governments addressed the aspect of 'rewarding' people for their irresponsibility, our society would improve and rapidly.
