[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Intellectual stimulation, social interaction, serving an underprivileged population and using an education that took many years to complete. Oh and being a role model to my daughters! [/quote] So paid work = being a role model?[/quote] I’m not that poster but yes. It is very important for children to see both parents doing the same thing. Working and taking care of them.[/quote] +1000. I’m surprised this even had to be explained. I’m not arguing that there aren’t any benefits to having or being a SAHM, but this one thing is clearly on the dual working parents side of the scale. [/quote] Agree with this. Never want to have my kids think “daddy works and mommy takes care of us.” Plus many of the other reasons mentioned here. Intellectual stimulation; not wanting to waste my education; making a difference in the world; raising my boys to respect working women; etc.[/quote]
