Militants - are they for real?

Someone on another board posted this link.

It's about Dr. Laura saying that all women should be SAHMs until the child is at least 3 years old.
Whether we're talking about working or staying at home, I can't quite wrap my head around what is going on inside the brains of people that apply the phrase "all women should".
Do you think militants are actually serious, or just trying to get a rise out of others?

No, you haven't even given personal experience.

So you say.
I am honestly confused.
No, you didn't at all. You said a parent should be with the kids, then said this did not mean being with the kids 24/7. This leaves the obvious question of when do you think it is acceptable for a parent NOT to be with the child?
It is not clear at all what you mean by "expected" and "probable" in this context. As written that could cover almost any circumstance. Let's say I work and commute 60 hours a week (I don't and never have, this is an example), then it would be expected and probable that I be with my child the remaining 108 hours of the week. However, I don't think that is what you mean.
I'm sure that I didn't say that.
so how does one prepare BEFORE having a child?
I guess we're finding out that "not all responses are created equal", huh?
What answer would you be looking for? Women posting stated no planning will save a stay at home mom. They also determined being independently wealthy won't guarantee anything either. How exactly would you like me to answer? The answer has already be given by working mothers and their advocates. No one can guarantee they can stay home.
Responses indicate no personal answer I give will be acceptable.
"No, you haven't even given personal experience."
Concerning my views of working mothers, yes, I have.
"You've just made blanket statements.
