re: #157 Dr Lizardo
The era of the “dad at work, mom at home as full-time housewife” largely came to an end in the mid-1980s by my calculation. It certainly wasn’t untypical in mid-’70s California as my mother was a stay-at-home mom and my dad worked full-time (union job, BTW).
That was my dad, a Union steel worker. But as you said, those days did not survive the 80’s…
