Sir, - "The family" received a great boost from Victoria White's article on staying at home (Opinion, November 9th). The work a mother can do at home with her family will outdo anything she can do in business or industry.
One of the major benefits is the self-confidence, with the consequently improved attitudes and behaviour, engendered in children from the security of knowing that a parent is at home for them.
Perhaps the Minister for Finance will take this into consideration and remove the anomalies in the tax system. - Yours, etc.,
M. McEvoy, Goatstown Road, Dublin 14.
