[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Working moms always want to hear how progressive and educated they are and how they are providing and setting a good example for their children not to rely on a man for $.

In reality though: working moms bewilder me. When you consider the thought people put into getting a dog for example- whether the dog will have space to run, enough time for walks, enough time to spend with it each day. It's sad to see that people don't put this forethought into bringing an actual human being into the world. If you are having children to put them in daycare, aftercare, whatever, then you're showing that your child that your priority is your job, your career, your happiness and your poor child is less than a dog. I'm sorry if you don't want to hear this.[/quote]

Did your mom work? Did you feel like she cared more for the dog than you while you were finger painting with your friends? I'm sorry to hear that but that was symptomatic of your mom's poor parenting skills, nothing to do with her working. She would have been just a crappy mom at home, if not worse.

She was a great mom who sacrificed an amazing career to be home with me.  I felt loved and supported and she set the example of what motherhood should look like. The only crappy "moms" are the ones who parent less than part time. One hour in the morning, two at night, and parts of the weekend.[/quote]
