Listener Andrea shared a story that inspired this week's RGR: "I can't stop thinking about how my mom got screwed in a divorce and now has no retirement savings—she was a stay-at-home parent, and my father got all the assets in the divorce." We explore how to quantify and understand unpaid labor in the household, what stay-at-home parents can do to protect themselves, and other perspectives around gender norms and cultural beliefs.
