[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We haven't dealt with that because [b]all the women in our family are progressive feminists[/b], and all of them, even the most outspoken, have spent some time in careers and some time at home with their kids for a variety of reasons; some a full 21 years. At least one family had a dad step out of the workforce for a while.

Planning your financial life to enable you to have the choice to stay at home with kids if you want to and believe it is best for you and your family, and advocating for social structures that support parents' choices of how to care for their children - earning and income or not -- are not inconsistent with feminism.

Some people do not have flexible minds or empathy, so for them it may take personal experience (say the birth of a special needs child) to fully grasp that part of feminism is not criticizing other womens' choices and advocating for families writ large.[/quote]

I'm sorry. That must be miserable.[/quote]

Pp you don't know that!  You prove that point quite nicely[/quote]
