That holds true even in my solidly middle class, mostly white community. I volunteered as a crossing guard at our local Elementary school and the number of stay at home moms was vanishingly small.

Two-earner families have been the norm since the 1960s, I think. If Mr and Mrs X want a nice house, two cars and money for a tidy suburban lifestyle, both of them have to work. It’s economics 101.
