1. We NEED two incomes to survive... Yeah Right! I honestly believe that out of the people that say this 90% would be just fine if they would cut their lifestyle, move to a cheaper area and sacrifice. I am not buying it one bit when people say this.
2. I put my kid in Daycare for the socialization.. Good grief, how much socialization does a 10 month old need?? Besides there are better ways to much socialize young children.
3. I am a better mom if I work outside the home.. UGHH! How in the world do you think you are a better mom by handing your kid off to Grandma or someone else to raise while you go work?? Unless you are going to beat them or verbally abuse them, I always think at home with mom is where kids thrive the most..
THere are others I can't stand, but these are my top 3. Have at it..

It all depends on the area of the US and the laws respecting maternity leave and pumping at work. Here in CA, by law, businesses are required to provide time and space (with a locked door, not a bathroom) to allow mothers to pump at work. Arizona doesn't have those laws, which Joy finds barbaric and considers the lack of such laws to be a major factor in why more mothers don't breastfed there. Each state has their own laws.

Yow, that's a pretty big step. Are you sure about that??
It must be tough to be faced with such a decision. (((HUGS))) to you guys - and to the lifeguards, too. :-)
