[quote=Anonymous]As a kid, and as an adult, I was always proud of that my mother worked--she started out a secretary worked her way up to a senior management position where she was well-liked and well-respected. She made peanuts when we were little and probably barely broke even, esp. when all three of us were in daycare--I think she mostly worked back then for the health benefits, since my father was self-employed. I have never, as a kid (that I can remember) or as an adult thought: "I wish I had had a SAHM." Some people feel differently, I know, but I think it's a false premise that being home with your kids is inherently more valuable (to you or to them) than working. It's all about individual circumstances and preferences, and no one should judge others who feel differently. [/quote]
