If there were more jobs than people, either the business wouldn't be run at all, or one person, who was already managing a whole other business by himself, would be forced to manage more than one.
and that the high rate of divorce can be associated with money and child rearing concerns, the answer is obvious.
I think that's only a small part of the problem. I think the majority of families realize they just aren't right for eachother; there're a hundred reasons someone'd get a divorce.
The average woman can be in and out of child delivery within hours with modern medicine, and thanks to better prenatal care they can remain in the workplace quite late into pregnancy without having to take a maternity leave. Thus a woman can remain at work even throughout the process of having a child. Leaving the men at home would give us somebody to take care of our children and to keep house, and if we limit the education they're allowed to have, say, only to twelfth grade, the lack of education and means of self-support would keep them in a marriage and lower divorce rates
Take men out of the workplace
Okay well, I don't see a point to prove why we shouldn't just take WOMEN out of the workplace. Makes more sense, doesn't it? Since uh.. Guys don't have to have kids, but if a woman was working on her due date, she'd still have to give up the few hours of work to have the kid. No matter what, the man will probably drop whatever he's doing to witness the birth, so yeah. Not to mention the fact that a child needs to breast feed... The guy wouldn't be much of a substitute for a mother.
