[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]hmmm....we thought it was "absolutely unfair" to bring a child into the world and then leave her with a minimum wage worker to care for her.  And to the PP who posted "we don't subscribe to gender stereotyping..." - I didn't decide to SAH because I felt it was my place as a woman!  OMG, I fell madly in love with my DC and wanted to do the day in and day out 'job' of caring for her.  [/quote]

What????. You are a complete bitch. I went down to part time after a 5 month maternity leave with both children. I then worked at home with a great nanny that I could come down and see them whenever I wanted. My kids are now in elementary school and I see them the same exact number of hours as a SAHM.  I finish work and then pick them up from school at 3:45. dH and I have a true partnership and no resentment or burden for $ or childcare is on one or the other.  The funny thing is---I am the mom that goes on every field trip, volunteers a room mother, etc.  very few of the SAHMs step up to the plate at our school.[/quote]
