Compliment?
“I doubt whether very many men are able to breakfast their children, clothe them, deliver them to a child-minding centre or school, do a day’s work, and catch up with the household chores and meal preparation at the end of the day’s work.”
This comment on the problems of deserted husbands Is from a clergyman who conducts a helpinghand mission in the city, a newspaper column, and radio broadcasts.
I wonder if he really meant it as a compliment to the many women who can, and do, do all those things?
