In what sense?

Although I was slightly playing devil's advocate to the post above by jonbxx (greater subsidies for childcare to make it viable for both parents to work) it's legitimate to ask whether to address the problem from the other side - essentially affordability of homes. Which is to a great degree based on what banks are willing to lend.

I didn't make any judgement on which parent. There'd also be an issue for single parents that would need addressed - however they wouldn't be in the rat race for affordable homes with a larger number of mortgage applications based on two earners.

I really don't know what "lower/worse" about that. There are undoubtedly many flaws within it however your implication that it's somehow "low" is utterly bizarre. As is the moral judgement on a seemingly large number of my posts.
