[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Newsflash: Raising kids is a contribution to society.[/quote] Newsflash: you can raise kids, plus have a career.[/quote] I spent 30 plus years as working mom. Then I got laid off and now I work part time while staying at home. I'm not bored. I realize that I was way overextended while trying to raise kids and work full time and that it almost ruined my mental health for good. The expectation that women can take on full time jobs while still performing most of their traditional roles is, in my view, nothing short of abuse. You can say that men should take on half of the home roles but that doesn't work for most of us. Meanwhile, men have come to expect women who can "do it all" and still be hot in the bedroom. [/quote]
