Stay-at-home mums: so what’s new?

I WAS a bit taken aback at the extent of the outrage following the recent offensive and insulting claims by Mary Robinson concerning stay-at-home mothers.

Not because I agree with her - I most certainly do not. But because I find it extraordinary that it is only now that ordinary family men and women have woken up to the truth about our former president.

After all, Mrs Robinson was always opposed to the idea of mothers remaining at home. She obviously still is a proponent of a brand of radical feminism that is extremely hostile to stay-at-home mums.
