Love from a father should be a basic right.....which cannot be given if he is at work. See how stupid your point was? It is illogical because parents need to work. And, most often, one breadwinner isn't enough, monetarily. If we lived in a perfect world, I'm sure most mothers would want to stay home with their kids as much as possible. But, because this isn't a perfect world, and people need to make money to support their families, both parents usually HAVE to take a job that takes them away from their family.
Also, if we take women out of the workforce, we will be severely hindered in terms of progress. Many women are much better at their jobs than their male counter-parts. To take them out of the work-force hurts the work-force in general.
