Well no. Just not directly.

Had our kids been raised by incompetent mothers the GDP would likely be a lot lower.

Mothers and family upbringing play a huge role in a successful society. Its just not seen as directly as literally selling products through a business

I think we're coming up on tax time, when the media will spend a lot of time telling us what the "market value" of stay at home mom's is. They will probably throw out a figure of around $120k per year.

Meanwhile, they will ignore the husband who's busting his hump to earn $50k per year to support the wife and kids.

GDP is a number. It neglects anything that isn't quantifiable.

Family life isn't economic activity.

It's like saying GDP doesn't measure how much OP sucks cock.
