This reminds me of countries like Iran and Afghanistan where women are legally treated as even less than children, requiring a male guardian to go outside, even if that male is her 7-year-old child. It's horrifying that the U.S. is moving in that direction and clueless young women are being led astray by a silly TikTok trend. If you want to stay home and take care of your children, no problem, but don't fail to have a back-up plan/means of support in case your husband dies or you find you need to divorce him. Another story published recently on Fourth Wave tells the tale of the author's parents' marriage which left her mom trapped (Killing Mom Softly With Tradwife Lies). Every adult needs to and has the right to stand on their own two feet.
