[quote=Anonymous]I think there is just a disconnect between people you know IRL and random people in general. I have friends that are SAH Moms and, while we rarely get together because I'm not free during the week, I respect them and their choices. That being said I do think there is a disconnect between highly-educated SAHM and college-educated. We've had the debate before and I won't rehash it, but bottom line I DO think its a waste of resources to train someone for many years to have them end up as SAHMs. BUT that is both a failure of our society (and jobs) as well as graduate programs. I felt like, in my training they set up many women to eventually fail or drop out once they became Moms because 1) the jobs are not friendly to families and women but 2) they promised us things had change and that it was more a problem of motivation e.g. 'women think they can't do it' vs 'the pay and hours do not match well with family life'.[/quote]
