Why does the media portray working moms, always, as having guilt?

No, I have personally seen teachers helping the kids get things. There is nothing wrong with helping a child. I would hope they would as he is in their care all day.
My son's toys (99% of them) ARE on the floor or reaching distance. It depends on the weight and size of the toy. He is not a big kid, small, 31 pound child.
Gee, you're nice. I hope that's hyperbole, because if you are calling me neglectful because I don't agree with your parenting style, then you debate way too meanly. I have a three year old and she is perfectly capable without me doing everything for her. Just because I don't jump at her beck and call doesn't mean she's not constantly supervised. I'm just not a pushover, and I expect my 3yo to learn how to do things for herself. Perhaps you treated your older daughter the same way, and that could be why a 9yo can't even take her own shower without help.
ET change a sentence because some people have never heard of figures of speech, apparently.

You have down twice that you do mop and then you don't, do you mean full jobs?.
You can leave your house not to be vaccummed for 2 weeks? Do you have any animals? Even without the dog, I need to vaccuum at least once a week.
What do you mean wouldn't be able to have 5 weeks of vacation? Those weeks were spent with my children. I don't understant what you are saying.
I do get my daughter from the bus many times during the year. Your busy day of doing things are also things that I do but after work and on weekends. I have to do the same things you do, but in a shorter amount of time than you have.
I have no clue what you are talking about taking care of other kids. I said you don't know what it is like for someone else to take care of YOUR kids so you can not judge me.
I am my children's mother and I and their father are raising them.
I don't agree. I am debating the fact that the posters here who keep very clean homes are being responded to by posters who seem to be proud of their messy, dirty homes. Hazeleyes may be being debated about the lack of help she receives from her family but I never had that problem so it is not what I am debating at all. I believe that adults can focus on the people and their homes at the same time. Having a clean home doesn't mean people aren't focusing on the "important things", as some have implied.
