[quote=Anonymous]My grandmother who died at 104 around 2000 worked as a medical transcriptionist during the Depression while my grandfather fought the state's quota against Jews in the teaching profession. He won. She "retired" and had two children in her mid-thirties. (He went on to be a school principal). My mother worked and put my father through graduate school twice and while he wrote his doctorate. She was an SAH while I was young but then went back to work later as well. I'm betting a lot of women consider their own mothers and grandmothers SAH and have no idea they worked outside the home to put their husbands through school or in hard times.[/quote]
