[quote=Anonymous]Wow, you are insecure. Your whole first paragraph is bragging about your doctorate which has nothing to do with these women. Also, I don't follow your reasoning...they're probably not "pressured to compete" for job reasons if they could afford to SAHM in this area during their 30s and early 40s. And a doctorate isn't what you do in 90 plus percent of fields if you feel pressured to compete financially. I'm sure they have some intellectual interest, along with a financial cushion that allows them to do this. The online doctorate is probably a good path for them, too, due to being able to spend more time with kids and because they may have to move for a DH's higher-earning job. Also, please show me these 45 year old highly-educated grandmothers in the DMV. Stop comparing yourself to others.[/quote]
