Your household needs a mission, and you, as the father, need to provide it.
Households were meant to be productive. Not just places of rest and entertainment.
When we took out productive purposes of households, we took away the heart of the most valuable institution in civilization. The men went to the factories, the children went to school, and the women were told to stay home to oversee something that had suddenly become frivolous.
No wonder the first wave of feminists revolted. And they weren’t wrong in their reasoning.
We removed all of the important work from households and outsourced it.
