Where is it from? Is this formal sector employment?
IIRC the informal labor market is something like 80% of the country in total. Lots of people work in ways that are difficult to gather statistics about.
And it’s really hard work btw, cooking and looking after the house and kids. They’re definitely not just “sitting home and drinking tea.”
It's changing rapidly with the newer generation but for my parents' generation that is definitely the norm.
When you look at all the BS jobs around, spending your time taking care of your family sounds much more productive and rewarding to me.
Worked out pretty well.
Of course you want to allow for people to do whatever they want, but part of that is enabling them to not have to be stay-at-home parents. And most people want to do something more than that, in practice, because creating things is a fundamental human need that most people have. If people want to be stay-at-home parents and they can do it, more power to them, but it's important to allow them to make that choice otherwise unconstrainedly and not through societal pressure to keep women at home because jobs are unsafe (there are whole categories of work one avoids at the margin in India if one is a woman, because you cannot guarantee safe transport from/to one's place of work).
I'm not gonna waste time arguing with someone who writes something like that.
Forcing people to have less children is bad (see one child policy). If people want to have less children voluntarily then you've found a way to success.
