[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't say that because I know people do find it offensive. If asked I'd say I just wanted to be home with my kids when they were little and enjoy those years. I was fortunate to work PT and do a little freelance so it was easy to return to my career when they were older. And, I did really enjoy that time at home and am glad I did it. I don't think it makes me a better mom than someone else but I personally was a better mom that way than if I'd been stressed out by a job with a not-great boss and a longish commute. Others are their best mom-self by working and having great childcare (that's what my sister did). As a PP said, now that my kids are teens, you really can't tell who had a SAHM and who had a nanny, group care, etc. Just do what works for you. [/quote]
