EEOC promotes practices that would encourage men to work in more family work situations. It also talks about the strong overlap between women's rights and caregiver rights. Both of these issues need to be addressed since disproportionately women are the dominant caregivers. But because they are women they have always been paid less even though job is becoming more critical in our society. In order to change this, we must work for better pay for these women and these positions so that they are earning what they deserve. Men should be encouraged to participate as well and should take on family roles if the woman in the household works outside these roles. While it would be very difficult to pass actual laws about these changes, smaller legislation within states can occur in order to change the way things are going right now.
