Somewhere around the 70s women were forced into the work force (I wonder what significant event occurred in the 70’s that could have contributed 🤔)
Also, coincidently there was a feminist movement to help drive a societal shift toward not only accepting this reality…
…but celebrating and glorifying it.
As a result, both parents were forced into employment over long hours.
It started with kids staying at home with mum until school started. Then at around 6 the kids went off to school and mum joined the workforce.
But an environment of declining interest rates and a real rate of inflation higher than what we were reported to experience meant mum needed to go back sooner.
So we saw preschool and kindergarten start to form “a very important part of our kids development”.
Coincidentally, it allowed mum to take some extra hours at an earlier age.
Then came daycare centres, massively subsidised by governments.
It now means mum can pump that baby out and be back at work as early as just a few short weeks after giving birth.
Not only is this socially acceptable, we have created a world where this is a necessity to put a roof over your head and food on the table.
This has resulted in children being raised by other people and they look toward their peers for their developmental and emotional needs.
Mum and dad go and flog themselves out for wages, by the time they get home they are tired and cranky, barely having enough energy left to give the children the love, attention and support they deserve and need.
The kids turn again towards their peers for this attention.
Our world is developing with youth who are completely detached from their parents.
Their emotional development is being shaped by their peers, forming behaviours and personalities that are formed trying to gain peer acceptance, rather than shaped through unconditional love..
..from their parents.
How can we grow into our authentic selves when we are trying to conform to acceptance from a peer group that are themselves underdeveloped and suffering from the same struggles?
EVERYTHING is downstream of money.
Where did I learn this incredible piece of the puzzle?
