The canadian family in crisis: part 3 victims of crisis: women.

While the traditional family relied on the largely silent oppression of women in the home, the new family forms frequently impose even greater unjust burdens. Women are still assumed to be primarily responsible for child care and for keeping the family unit running smoothly, even as they take on equal burdens in the work world.

The new feminism can never achieve full equality for women as long as women continue to be primarily responsible for child care. Women in europe have narrowed the pay gap with men. Receive full-pay maternity leave benefits and have high levels of state aid to daycare.
