I think it's safe to say Fiona Stanley is firmly in the corner of parents and families... All of them. I think the first article misrepresented her. She herself is a working mother and not saying it's wrong. She questions how we ended up in a society where people need to work longer and longer just to make ends meet.
Supporting a paid parental leave system is about helping working parents nit judging them.
Highlighting the loss of community and parenting skills in many new parents is not about judging either. Fiona Stanley is a firm believer of good beginnings and healthy childhoods bettering society as a whole and wants to see a change in they way our government works to make children healthier and happier.
She is an inspiring, wise woman in my opinion. And these are some of the big issues facing our society.
