Cartoon promotes double standard

Cartoon promotes double standard

I was very offended by the cartoon ''How working mothers keep in touch with their kids,'' March 10. That cartoon essentially promoted the double standard of parenting.

Indeed, when is Jeff Danziger going to draw a cartoon about O.J.'s defense attorneys, who ''dump'' all of the child care and housework on their wives? The Monitor should start taking a stand against this double standard.
