[quote=Anonymous]I disagree that the OP was not trying to be offensive. I think she knew that this topic would get both "sides" (it's sad because there really shouldn't be sides as we are all parents trying to do right by our kids) all worked up.

I work full time, including putting in some hours at night. Like another PP, I would love to be able to stay at home for all the reasons she stated.

FWIW, my older sister has been out of the workforce for 20 years.  Her youngest child is 16. When I was younger and thought I was cooler than cool, I never really respected her choice to stay at home and kind of assumed she was just living a life of going to the gym, hanging out with friends and not really using her brain. But, since I've gotten married and had my own kids, I realize that not everything is black and white. She worked her ass of with those kids. Sure, she has ALOT more time now that the kids are grown to work out, go to lunch, etc. But, who cares? Her kids are amazing, and she deserves it. She is also really smart and curious and I am just kind of sad that I didn't take the time to get to know her as a person due to my own judgments. [/quote]
