[quote=Anonymous]This is so stupid. Who do you think is supposed to pay you if you stay at home? It's work, of course it is, but it isn't paid work, and that's the choice some people make. Yes, you can say that some people don't make enough to pay for childcare, and I don't disagree that childcare may be prohibitively expensive for some people. But paying someone to do stuff around their house (whether child care or housework) is ludicrous. I mean, do working parents get paid on the weekends when they're with their kids? What about if I have a maid but clean up the kitchen after dinner? If my husband does it is the cost the same even if our salaries differ?[/quote]
