Isn't it the responsibility of both parents to care for, nurture, educate, etc. their children? Why must the mother be singled out solely because she is the one that bears the child \before/ it is born. If working parents are selfish then most fathers have been selfish for a long, long time. I wish there were more places of employment which provided parents with daycare service; if these services could be provided at the place of employment, so much the better, because then all employees whose children were being so cared for could participate in the care. I realize that this would require a drastic change in most workplaces, but isn't it worth it?
