[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  This thread has me feeling more torn than ever!  FWIW if I founded a company it would not be IT-related, but wellness-related as that’s what I did prior to working in IT (I actually don’t gaf about working in IT!).  My ultimate goal is to be in politics, which I’m working toward.  I know *for sure* I will not be a SAHM forever, but the idea of handing my kid over to an underpaid daycare worker is really, really unappealing - this is not a judgement on those who utilize daycares, which I once did, but it’s just not for me.

I guess all of this discourse goes to show that corporate America/the US government does not care a whit about the well-being of children and families, which of course I already knew. Its unfortunate that for so many working/not working is a zero-sum game.  It’s for this reason that I will most likely exercise option 3, starting my own business, because I’m not so sure I want to be enmeshed in this system.[/quote]

Don’t run for office if your attitude towards women is this regressive. [/quote]
