Cleaver never had an outside job. June did her housekeeping dressed in her obligatory string of pearls and best dress, and Ward worked his 9 to 5 day at some job that was never described. June greeted Ward when he came home by having dinner ready on the table. On television, the children were always clean and well dressed, and were so golly gee whiz sweet that it could cause a sugar rush in the television viewer. Life just doesn't work like the 1950's television lineup.
Real life has it's up and downs.
Many women choose to work or must work outside the home in order to support their families. Women who make the decision to work, or have that decision forced upon them are not any better or worse than those who work in the home. We are all different, and we cannot put our standards on everyone, as everyone's situation is different. Having a career outside the home is demanding work. In these days of workplace equality, there is still an unspoken gap between setters and pointers, and this is a real shame.
