[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no monetary equivalent for raising your own children. The pay is not in dollars.[/quote]

Agree. The other posters have no idea how valuable it is. The highest calling and job a woman can have is wife and mother. Obviously many here dishonor that.[/quote]

Luckily, I can be a wife and mother AND have paid employment too.[/quote]

More power to you.  When I quit my job, there were many women at my office who said that they would do it too, if their pay was not required.  Anytime you choose to do what you do then you are lucky. Not everyone can have everything.  It is true that WOHM have a source of income that they earn, it is also true that SAHMs get to spend more time with their kids. Both are true and both are not comparable.

I only wish for all women that when they do what they do (SAHM or WOHM) it is because they have really made the choice for their own happiness and not because they had no option.

To be able to SAHM, for those women, who want to spend time with their kids, and they are  financially secure - it is a great thing.
To be able WOHM ,  for those women, who love their job and have the support system in place for their home and kids  - it is a great thing too.

To not be financially secure - whether WOHM or SAHM - and not have support systems in place - they are bad in any situation.[/quote]

I spend as much time with my kids as the SAHMs do. Our kids are all gone 40 hours a week, between school and the bus rides, not counting various activities.  Not a big difference in the time when the kids are school aged.[/quote]
