Hmmm .... I was raised to believe that you can’t depend on a man. It was understood that I would always need to work and support myself. And even if I did have a husband with a good job, I needed to be ready to help my husband support any kids we had. I was taught that while white mothers may stay at home with their kids, I should never think that my life would allow such an extravagance. So, despite the black middle class mirroring what you may find among white middle class families—two parents at home, a nice home in a safe community, a dog and a minivan—you won’t find many stay at home moms among black families. Except for my aunt, who made great sacrifices to stay home when her kids were young, I didnt know any black stay-at-home moms when I was growing up. Even today, it just isnt done. Even when the dad works. Even when the dad has a good job. education.penelopetrunk/2013/08/21/3-reasons-why-black-people-dont-homeschool/
