[quote=Anonymous]The reality is that raising children is more than a full-time job. If mom or dad wants a career, the family needs to hire someone who will prioritize the children since the parents won't. I've said this before - there are commitments one makes in life. The commitment to 4 years of college comes with assumptions that you aren't going to be working full-time, right? The commitment to a job comes with assumptions that you aren't working another 2 or 3 jobs on the sides too, right? How is it that people think that a commitment to parenting allows you to have an uninterrupted career too? It is an intensive 10 years which starts to taper off gradually, then quickly in the next 10 years.[/quote]
