Both? I am not sure what your suggestion is for a 7 year old when both parents start work at 8am

Adjust work schedules to allow children an appropriate amount of sleep. But, this requires broad societal buy-in, as most employees can't simply declare "I'm starting my day at 10am".

Maybe we could have a society with basic income or improved government childcare benefits so only one parent needs to work. Alas, it will never happen in the USA, because it would involve taking money from rich people.

I would be expected to be stay at home, because school schedule wouls force me so? And if I was divorced or husband was sick, I would be screwed?

Raise taxes on everyone and pay one of them to stay home.
