Staying at home a choice??
| Sun, 04-29-2007 - 6:46am |
The author of this article thinks most mothers go to work because they want to, not because they have to.
"Most parents from two-parent families today do have a choice when it comes to parental care. They can try and talk themselves into believing they don't, but it really boils down to priorities."

Does anyone (other than her) really believe this? I don't know of anyone among my friends who works who wouldn't rather be staying at home with their children. But they don't have the choice!

Well, that is a little snobbish and definitely not common sense. Like MM, I went to grad school so I could have a better life and earn more money. So even in my 20s in grad school, I couldn't afford a new mattress but I could afford rent - entirely through loans from kindly taxpayers like yourself. I guy I went to grad school with lived out of his car his final year. He could probably buy and sell me right about now!
