Fight for rights of stay-at-home mothers

A DELEGATION from our group, Mothers at Home, recently met with the All Party Oireachtas Committee on the Constitution in Leinster House.
Fight for rights of stay-at-home mothers

Our delegation called for support for mothers who want to be free to devote all their time to the work of home-making without being stigmatised by society or penalised financially by the state.

We called for the retention of the articles in the constitution that supported the traditional family unit, including the mothers’ rights article 41.2, which recognises the value to the state of the work of the stay-at-home mother. We rejected the suggestion that this article was in any way outdated.
