[quote=Anonymous]My mom had a "big career," and my dad was a SAHD. My mom's colleagues literally didn't know she had children, and my teachers in school genuinely thought my mom had DIED. I was constantly correcting them. One teacher didn't believe me and thought I had mental health issues, and contacted my Dad (this was the early 90s). My mom never showed up for anything, ever. Is what I want for my children? No. But as an adult I have a wonderful relationship with my mom, I love her deeply, and I know she was working as hard as she was at something she loved, breaking glass ceilings as she went. And through it all she provided for me and my family financially. Anyway, don't beat yourself up. Have your spouse do more. Miss some things. It wont' be the end of the world.[/quote]
