[quote=Anonymous]Definitely it's a question phrased as the age-old debate. I feel lucky every day to do the work I do! I truly look forward to it and it involves issues that are a huge passion of mine. Being a mom inspired me more to make the world a better place in this way for the future generations. I also used to work way more hours before I was a mom, but now I just work 40 a week pretty much. My salary is nearly half our income. I am in a field where one can't take years off and expect to get a job again. Nor would I want that as I enjoy the structure, the intellectual stimulation, and the adult interaction. I also appreciate the security, having familiarity with divorces and health issues, etc. For all of the reasons, I work and am thankful to have the opportunities I do, in a field our moms and grandmothers generations weren't able to get into much.[/quote]
