Do you think a SAHM should go back to...

Do you think a SAHM should go back to work once the kids start school?
- Absolutely, why shouldn't she? There's no reason why she shouldn't.
- It's up to her & her family.
- No, not really. What do the kids being in school have to do w/ her working?
You will not be able to change your vote.

We have no public transportation system in our town outside of a large metro area. And if I lived in the large metro area I'd not utilize their transportation system. I can see me w/2 small kids, a double stroller, hefty diaper bag and $200 worth of groceries using the bus lol
And you are right about the 4.99 a lb for chicken, no thank you! It is completely illogical in my opinion also.
I thoroughly agree with your last paragraph and I was born before 1970 hee, hee!

That doesn't disprove her point it supports it. It might also support an arguement that would say that young women who take the time to try and ensure that they can earn a good living eventually, will have more opportunity to do things that will beneifit the lives of their eventual children - through increased SES and through access to employment that won't make it difficult for them to be involved in their children's lives - than those who don't.
We just have different priorities. While all of our family time is not spent in the family room or even in the house, some of it is and we like it.
Boredom to you. Lovely time spent for others. We are just vastly different and that is OK because that is how it is suppose to be, we are not all suppose to be alike or like the same things.
Dh & I don't see it as being selfish. We have priorities. Ours for our family is just not the same as yours for your family. Big difference but still acceptable.

Yes, it would be more environmentally friendly if people lived closer together. People love their space but it is contributing to the degredation of our land. All you talk about is the inconvenience to you. That is why I called you spoiled. And I hate when people shudder and say "Ooh, public transportataion. Not for me." As if it were a disease.
I am not really an environmentalist. My sister would laugh at that term for me. However, I like to think environmentally friendly. But, I would have voted for the rail line. I can see how a bike path is cleaner, but impractical for the distance you are talking. The new light rail line in my state had problems getting started because people didn't want a train running through their town.
Boring? Hardly.
