What do you think this enables?
Hint: it’s not parents spending a lot of time with their children.
Not all childcare is required to be 40 hours a week...giving parents the option to have a day to do things without the kids making it take 3x as long can be helpful.
Your optimism is laudable but that’s not at all how these things tend to go. You will see. I hope in 20, 30 years you’ll remember this conversation and you’ll realize how right I was about how wrong this is and how it will only serve to further enslave people to market logic.
I had already forgotten your stupid comment about how only your vision of people's lives is the right one everyone need to follow even existed.
But you let me laugh at it twice. Thanks.
