The centuries-old tradition of half-day schooling in Germany is breaking down as more women go to work. The trend will likely accelerate as a tipping point is reached. More women are likely to feel forced to work by changes in prices and wages and by a shift in cultural norms. Unless there is conscious social policy to resist the loss of the male breadwinner, this shift cannot be prevented in the modern world.

This cultural revolution in one country relatively resistant to advanced feminism is presented by the New York Times as it is presented everywhere. The change is necessary for the larger economic good. But the departure of women from the home leads to economic losses and social decay in the long run. Birth rates fall, education and manners decline, marriage rates decrease, and divorce increases. The workforce of the future grows weaker. Any economically vital society cannot be sustained at high levels over the long term by absentee parenting and childlessness. Already, one third of German women in their mid-40s do not have children.
