The job of parenting is indeed a stressful one with long hours and low pay. Its basic tenets, to bring a child from infancy to adulthood healthy, in one piece and with some ability to manage on its own have remained the same since the beginning of time. In the United States, the manner in which this gets accomplished, and by whom, has gone through many changes as our society has grown and changed.
