For those wondering what the statement actually says

quote:

We make our spaces family-friendly and enable parents to fully participate with their children. We dismantle the patriarchal practice that requires mothers to work “double shifts” so that they can mother in private even as they participate in public justice work.

We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.

Statement isn’t saying to destroy the nuclear family but to change a system where single parents struggle to raise kids due to having to work double jobs to provide adequate income

I think he was wrong in his interpretation of the statement

It quite clearly says to replace the nuclear family with the collective. That destroys the western nuclear family.

They also y’all about single mothers having to wrk two jobs. Do you know how you stop a single mother from not working two jobs? Be a traditional nuclear family where both parents work or just one parent works and the other cares for the children.
