[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Question for all you working mothers: how do you know there is a gap because of childcare? How do you know what the gap was for? Certainly you can't ask. Are you assuming? 1. What if they were sick with cancer and then recovered? 2. Cared for 2 elderly parents with multiple medical issues, including schizophrenia? 3. Cared for a severely disabled child at the end of their life (Krebbs disease for example)? These are 3 real life examples from my family and social group where women took years off and then returned to the workforce. Are these acceptable?[/quote] The fact that you are equating these situations with the average SAHMs situation - nothing like what OP said - speaks volumes about you, and not positively. It's more akin to taking years to travel the world. Your choice? Sure. Respectable? Sure, in some circles. Something that can hurt you in the workforce? Absolutely.[/quote]
