It's kind of interesting that the article's summary says that women have "gained other options" aside from parenting (meaning that they work now instead), then goes on to cite a Guardian article saying that raising a child is more expensive than ever and that raising a child is basically a job that a woman pays to do rather than a job where she's paid. It doesn't seem to me that the conclusion that women have other options is true since the article makes it very clear just how crippling the economy is on modern families.
