[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is your husband doing to help you out?[/quote] This question reveals the problem - that Moms are supposed to carry the burden of childcare while Dads just "help". Why women continue to have babies is crazy. Women should go on strike by refusing to have kids until society makes huge changes in this messed-up attitude.[/quote] I'm also penalized at work because I'm a woman. But I'm not going to sacrifice my own career ambition (or desire to have kids) to punish men. [/quote] Then, are you okay with pulling more weight with the kids? In ALL of the families I know, with WOHM, WAHM, PT, FT, and SAHM, the Dads are helpers while the Mom bears most of the burden of childcare. For example, why do school nurses always call Mom when a child gets sick - never Dad? [/quote]
