When that time comes there will be no divorce problem.

There will be no longer a class of women who avoid the risk of divorce by refusing to marry.
The third fact, the increasing popularity of woman suffrage, I disposed of in the preceding chapter.

Nothing that the women who vote have ever done indicates, in the remotest degree, that they are not just as mindful of children's interests at the polls as other women are in their nurseries and kitchens.
On the contrary, wherever women have left their kitchens and nurseries, whenever they have gone out into the world of action and of affairs, they have increased their effectiveness as mothers.

Industrial slavery unfits a woman for motherhood as certainly as intellectual and moral slavery unfits her.
Women who are free, who look on life through their own eyes, who think their own thoughts, who live in the real world of striving, struggling, suffering humanity, are the most effective mothers that ever lived.

They know how to care for their own children, and more than that, they know how to care for the community's children.
