[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I could afford to stay home and be a mother and wife. Instead, I’m paying someone else to spend whole days with my child while I work at a career that is meaningless to me. Being a mother is not “just” being a mother. People can love being a mother the same way another woman might love being a lawyer. Parents can prioritize being present for their kids over spending most of their time focused on furthering their career or just earning a paycheck. [/quote] But can't you do both? It' a false choice at times. Not always, but at times. I heard someone use the term "full time mother' the other day -- I know what they meant, but are we not all full time mothers? [/quote]
