Militants - are they for real?

Someone on another board posted this link.
http://blogs.babycenter.com/celebrities/2009/04/12/dr-laura-says-all-moms-should-stay-at-home/?scid=momstodd_20090414_A:2&pe=2U8vYLf
It's about Dr. Laura saying that all women should be SAHMs until the child is at least 3 years old.

Whether we're talking about working or staying at home, I can't quite wrap my head around what is going on inside the brains of people that apply the phrase "all women should".

Do you think militants are actually serious, or just trying to get a rise out of others?

Hey, I was up at the same time, with my 2yo who wet the bed (the first time, I might add, since he was potty trained.....poor baby was so upset!).

it's called WORKING -- NOT sah when you can't afford raising kids.

"I didn't bring up homeschooling. I mentioned that I have two children and can't be in two places at once and gave a single example, which happened to be schools. Our children do not always have a parent with them, as I stated in an earlier post, I can't imagine how that would make my 13 year old feel, middle school is often an awkward stage of life."


Clearly, you were talking about yourself. You were talking about your personal life. >>


Yes, I wrote the following, it doesn't state a single thing about working while they were in school.

Let me tell you....waiting to have kids until one's forties would be insane, and I don't understand why any woman would *willingly* wait until then.

Oh, my bad. It is either your opinion that one can or cannot guarantee that a person can stay home.

If you agree that no one can guarantee they can stay home, then thank you for answering my question in post 1041.

If you think that it IS possible for someone to guarantee that they can stay home, then please answer the question as to HOW.
