RUN MOMMY RUN!  By Talia Carner, author of Puppet Child.



Less than forty years ago, married women in some U.S. states did not have the right to manage their own property, and all household property was deemed to belong to the husband upon divorce. More recently, it remained legal in some states for a husband to rape his wife. (Marital rape is still legal today in nearly every country in the world that bans abortion.)

In 1981, the Federal Work Incentive Program, three out of four of whose participants were women, was required by law to give jobs preference to men, who also received jobs paying an average of 34% more per hour. therapeutic jurisprudence 
infant overnights NATURAL CHILD PROJECT family law policy

Husbands by law routinely were defined as "head of the household."
Hundreds of laws overtly discriminated against women, and thousands of laws discriminated in effect.

Think by now it's all been "fixed? No. But the actual problems are not what you think. Don't look to what currently passes for "feminism" to identify or properly address mothers' issues or real women's issues. -- liz LIZ KATES
