“Liberalism” aka The Peter Pan Syndrome. 04/17/2009
At first glance, the Adventures of Peter Pan in Neverland is just a fun children’s story about a little boy who can fly through the air, and refuses to grow up. But if you look at the story closely, it is also a literal depiction of the psychology of many Liberals, their emotional maturity, and the way they think. FEMINISM Good Intentions Feminism in terms of getting women the right to vote, own property, access to education, and equal pay for equal work is obviously a noble cause. And those wrongs have largely been righted in this country. (However, women are still treated like property/second-class citizens in countries run by Radical Islamic Fundamentalists.) Negative Effect Some women have turned Feminism into a philosophy that looks down on women who choose to stay at home and raise families (Home-Makers). They praise women who pursue careers as being more intelligent and accomplished, and ignore the price they often pay for sacrificing family time for their jobs. The “family years” are precious years when a child grows up, but they fly by so fast. Both moms and dads should consider this fact, and find the right balance between advancing their careers/making money and spending quality time with their family. Career women are to be admired, but "stay at home moms" should be admired also for all the work they do raising and nurturing their children. |
