[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, I'm sure kids are appreciative of having a parent dedicated to the home and their needs.  But my kids are proud of having a mom who is accomplished outside of the home and are happy to have a nice home jointly run by mom and dad.  Whatever works for your family!  [/quote]

I hear kids at preschool all of the time asking their nannies or caregivers "why can't mommy pick me up?" or "why does mommy have to work?" or the worst, when another child asked me "why don't I have a mom on the field trip?" Kids notice these things. Whether is affects them long term or not, we won't really ever know. [/quote]

Preschool kids also want to eat candy for breakfast. The decision to WOH or SAH is an adult one, not up to the children, who can't possibly know what's best for their family.  I picked my kids up plenty of times and made lots of field trips, even though I worked, because I had childcare for my other kids. Many SAHMs couldn't go on field trips because they had no one to watch their other kids.[/quote]
