"I just don't want to work"

Hi all... I'm new to the board and I am curious.
I am in my mid twenties, unmarried, no children. I work in an extremely competitive field with many other women my age. Many of us are making six figures and the job is very stressful. We all have a great work ethic, but sometimes when the stress gets really bad, I'll often hear the girls (never the guys) saying things like "Arrgghh... I'm so sick of work. I just want to marry a rich man, have kids, stay home and NOT WORK."....... I was raised by two working parents (two very loving, caring hardworking parents). My mother was very successful in her career, and I feel that when I get married, I will (like my mom) continue to work and raise children at the same time (my mom was definitely "super mom" ---she did it all and was great!)...... My main question: many of the women in my work stay in the position for about 5-7 years and then leave.....the funny thing is...

Yes. We. Did.
"...and then one day I bit her back. I must have learned that from her...;-)"
I find it amazing that a mom admitted to BITING her child, yet I'm the one that's attacked for feeding my child something you don't approve of.
I haven't said anything about what you feed your child -- I'm the one who admitted a love for cinnamon toast crunch and and almost religious devotion to ice cream -- I have absolutely no nutritional ground to stand on when it comes to what we feed our kids LOL.
And I should mention that my child was seven when all this happened -- not one, not three, SEVEN and when a 4 1/2 foot seven year old bites you so hard it leaves teeth marks and bruises all over your arms it's no picnic believe me.
Yes. We. Did.
Yeah well, that's just, ya know, like, your opinion, man-The Big Lebowski
