I think Mormonism is pretty darn bad when it comes to women. In fact, I think my two oldest daughters, both of whom are on a trajectory to go to college, have received very confusing and negative examples and object lessons from Mormon acquaintances and family. It pisses a parent off to have to undo harmful effects of such disinformation.

Yea, what a horrible thing for a religion to believe...that women might just be better at raising kids than men are. What an insult to women. To give them such an important role in life. In fact, why should either parent stay home to raise the kids? Why not leave the child rearing to some complete strangers that run day care?
