[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not bashing SAHM but I wonder sometimes why any woman would want to be so vulnerable to be in the position of being a SAHM. If you have skills and 10yrs go by you will have to fight tooth and nail to get them back and get back out there. Marriages end and they end often so why throw all your eggs in one basket and hope for the best. Women with children need to be able to fend for themselves with or with out a husband/boyfriend and being a SAHM is a very vulnerable position to be in even if wealthy.[/quote]

I took the risk because I believe, based on what I have read, that growth from 0-3 sets the course for a person's life. During this time, i wanted to make sure that my daughter got lots of love, attention, guidance how to behave. And to have real hands on introduction to the world from spending time in the woods, at unfamiliar playgrounds, in the city streets, playing with kids with special needs, with poor kids from the city, with rich kids in Kalorama, etc so that she has confidence in many different situations.

Now that my daughter is 2, I am actively networking and volunteering to find a decent job by the time she is 3. I see it as giving her time to grow strong roots, then she can go off alone.

I don't have time to summarize the research, but look it up. White Led the Harvard Preschool Project for decades, among other things.[/quote]
