[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey bitches! If your daughters think you're all great because you have a career in law, science or finance, just brace yourselves! You think they look up to you because of your lousy career. Let's not get ahead of ourselves because this generation of women ar going ng to look up to Melania Trump.

If I have a daughter she would be a classically trained gold digger. Hope she's a beauty with long legs a thigh gap.[/quote]

SO SAD.

We need to move forward not backwards.

No one says bearing and raising children is not important work. It is, but with a lifespan now of 90 years and at least 4 years of college education + 5 years of experience working, it is a shame to have a qualified, educated and intelligent woman walk back into the kitchen barefoot and cleaning toilets.

House chores do not take 90 years. Neither does raising children.

Chin up ladies, lets meet our full potentials. WE SHALL RISE![/quote]

Yes, lives are long which is why it is ridiculous that a woman or a man can't take off 5 years or so to enjoy raising their young children (if that's what they want to do) and then get back into a career.  It's not staying home that's a problem it's that our work world makes it so hard for people to move in and out of work as life changes over time.[/quote]

[b]You can still take 5 years off and go back if you're willing to start at entry level all over again. [/b]And what's easier, tailoring your work/life sequence to the working world reality, or changing the world lol?  I also would argue that if one were to SAH, one should do it when children are in 7th through 12th grades. Much more important to be really engaged with your almost adult children and no childcare options :-)[/quote]

I actually did take 5 years off and returned to a position at the level where I left because 1) I stayed in contact with former bosses and coworkers and did the occasional project in my field and 2) was lucky to find a job with a boss who realizes 15 years of experience don't disappear just because you spend some time focusing on children.  Why should someone with 15 years of experience have to start at entry level again? That makes no sense.  I hire entry-level people now and wouldn't look at a returning SAHM for entry-level (returning to the same field she left, that is) because she'd be way overqualified and thus bored and leave quickly. But I'd absolutely consider one if a position matched her experience.[/quote]

You didn't take 5 years completely off.  You worked part time ("did the occasional project in my field").[/quote]
