Are you implying this is an improvement? this just putting a bandaid on a problem and that if “successful“, meaning it permits parents to work even more than they do now, it will become ossified into a permanent social arrangement. This is potentially if not more destructive as an economic system built with the expectation that there are two salaries in a household.

This is progress only if progress is defined as capitalism adapting to further exploit people and eliminate any sense of family in favor of individualism. It’s sick honestly.
