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

That doesn't really matter. I'd WOH no matter what. As I said, I knew from a very early age (as soon as I went to school and realized that some mothers WOH) that I didn't want to SAH like my mother.

I did SAH for 4 yrs after Joel was born. It was a very, very bad fit but I really didn't feel that I had a choice at the time. Looking back, I probably could've worked it out...but we all know about hindsight, right?

I think she means things like birth control and opting to wear shoes.

ah the desire to wear shoes isn't anything some good old fashioned foot binding won't cure
