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?

Insurance only goes so far, which is probably why Susannah specified in her scenario that his disability payments weren't enough to support the family.

It's easier for many working mothers to escape the responsibilities in raising their children, by running off to work.

Another story of one that didn't prepare sufficiently.

<Working moms cannot admit to the importance of raising their children. They will make every effort to diminish your views. >

Yes, but nobody claimed that. Many women work because they like working and consider it sensible to work for any number of reasons.

However, even those women, who for whatever reason think that children of working mothers somehow suffer, may find themselves in the situation of having to work.

It's no secret. A man cannot possibly share the same bond a mother shares. He did carry the child for nine months and feel that child grow inside of him. He cannot nurse the child either. Love is different. For someone to state they feel sadness
