So basically everyone that has commented thinks that if I woman wants to have kids then she has to stay home with them? What is this the 1950's! More women than men go to college now a days, but your saying that you shouldnt better society by working, just stay at home like a good little wife and take care of the kids, crazy!! All the article was stating is that the costs are high, it's more public information and knowledge, they didn't ask for government money! And we are the only developed country that doesn't have some form of paid maternity leave (just responding to other some very unkind comments).
