Society as a whole has done exactly the opposite of what you suggest.
A few examples.
Family leave act, Breastfeeding laws, Alimony,
BTW Joint parenting laws prevent exactly what you are claiming you are against.
Under presummed joint parenting, the father would have to provide worthwhile evidence of the mother being uncapable or unfit.
No mother don't need to learn to fight back as a whole. As a whole they need to wake and realize that they have fought back and are getting there equality they just don't like what came with. they now have to work to provide or now aren't given the "right" to be the parent to stay home it now has to be a descision..they should need to sign up for drafts but unfortuantely that hasn't happened.
