[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting, this conversation.

Do SAHMs of daughters who blast "ambitious women" plan to stress stay at home as the best option for their daughters and chide them if the do not?  WIll you be the evil MIL to the working spouse of your sons?

do you also stress school achievement for your daughters? if yes why? ONly fluency in math and reading is really necessary.  Why take up space in higher ed?  why send them to preschool? enrichment classes?  try to get them into AP, GT programs? college? and please don't let them take up space in grad school or take scholarships from the ambitious.

13:52, your last 'graf makes me chuckle.  Takes me back to college where a few guys complained about women taking up slots in law and med school.  "All you are going to do is have kids."  These guys did not like that there were some hard-working women in our class, who had laser focus and were all consumed with professional school admissions.  I assumed at the time - and still do - that they heard their fathers and other older men complain that these admissions were more difficult because of the increased number of women applying to these programs.
