[quote=Anonymous]All other things being equal, yes, I do think people with SAHPs have an advantage. They don’t need to deal with the day-to-day childcare and can devote the extra time to work. In reality, I haven’t seen that play out in my line of work. The ones who have been the most successful had children and no SAHP. They just worked their asses off, did an extremely thorough job, and contributed a lot to the company. One man I know who was promoted more quickly than anyone else ever had been was also the most demanding when it came to work/family balance. He insisted on leaving every day by 3pm to pick up his kids, would not work on his days off, took lots of vacation time, etc. I’ve applied this to my own life and have seen far more success in my professional life after kids than I did when I was single.
