This topic "piggybacks" on the priorities topic where we discussed what we gave up as working women and moms, what do you think our children give up...honestly!? What do you think they gain? Also please mention your own mothers status and your experience of a child as a SAH or WOH.

We had over five hundred trick or treaters at our house. If we had happened to have had other plans that might, would it have been incumbent upon me to go and hunt down all the kids who might have knocked had we been home and give them something?
