In Okin's view, the needs and interests of children must, unfortunately, be set aside in order to eradicate the gendered division of labor and ensure women's equality with men.

False.

Explanation:

Okin never stated that children's needs and interests should be left aside in order to guarantee gender equality in working environments. What Okin talked about in relation to children, was that, in order to allow women to have the same opportunities and rewards as men in the labor sector, it was necessary to provide day care at work, or leave related to day care, so that mothers had places to leave their children supported. Okin also reported the importance of providing sex and gender education for children, so that they would grow up within the concepts of gender equality.
