The video below discusses a couple social media posts from the LDS Church. The first has received considerable attention as it is from the Church's communications department and is of a husband praising the fact that his wife had finished medical school and was pursuing a career as a doctor while he is still trying to figure out his life (and presumably raising the kids). Hopefully he will figure something out before his wife divorces him, because a high earning woman is not going to stick with someone like him forever.
The second post, from BYU-Idaho, was of a woman who had worked to put her husband through school, but decided to continue working even though they no longer needed her to do so and they had a couple of children.
The host is not only puzzled because it represents a shift from past teaching, but comes at a time when birth rates are reported to have again declined in the United States.
(Note: the host of this video speaks overly slow--I put it on 1.5X speed in the settings and that seemed to be fine).
