From a societal point of view, we should normalize women taking a dozen years off for the family, allow some education catch-up, and welcome them back to the workforce without adding any crushing debt or negative consequences. A lot of women don't really enjoy motherhood and would rather be at work, so having systems where part-time work is normal would be good too.
