[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Grew up with a SAHM. I work. Would never want my child to be a SAHM. My lifestyle, finances and marriage are much better as a result of working. Being a part of an equitable marriage and coparentig is so important to me. I could never live the life my mother did or even some of my friends live. I’ll never raise my daughters to quit their jobs so they can provide unpaid labor to men. Never. [/quote] +100, especially since marriage is a contractor job nowdays, not a permanent position. A divorce can leave a SAHM in a sharp financial disadvantage. Sometimes SAHM is a forced necessity, but many times, a young mother can persevere at a job and then eventually become upwardly mobile again. Those of you that were upwardly mobile with a baby / very young child have my admiration.[/quote]
