John works a paid job, and May primarily performs unpaid labor, such as taking care of the home and the children. What is one consequence of this situation?

As there are no choices for this answer, I would say that the consequence of this situation is inequality of rights between genders.

Explanation:

As a consequence of the mother being the physically needed person next to the children, it is impossible for them to stay away from the house in a full time job. Women's jobs, in cases like the one described previously, are generally as hard as the ones men do, but they earn no money in return because it is not considered an official job. This ends up in inequality of rights between men and women because they work as hard as the other - in some cases women work even harder, since being a mom is a job with no timetable - and one earns money in return and the other one doesn't.
