what made you decide to do what you do?

In the interest of changing the subject back to something that is actually relevant to a SAH/WOH debate (LOL!), I will pose a question to anyone who wants to answer:
Who or what would you say was the greatest influence on your decision to SAH or WOH, whichever one you do (or want to do, if you aren't doing what you want)? Did any particular person, circumstance, situation, or anything else lead you to decide this question one way or the other?
What if two different influences conflicted? How did you make the decision then?

Rather than getting your back up so quickly and acting offended over nothing, you might read and see that all I spoke of was limiting the number of activities-not curtailing them completely. And yeah, you might have to read more than ONE post in order to infer that.

with all that said, i need to share what my ds1 has been doing this week, and being physically fit does help. i cant wait to hear how his snorkling in the florida, keys went. he called my mom to tell her about it, and i think hes still there. although he is out of the house, and works gobs of hours, he has figured out, if you work hard, you can play hard too.......FINALLY. LOL.
i definitely agree with total balance, and really am against too much of one activity, organized or not.
on the flip side, my dd was not very involved in many sports at all until she got into jr high and came home and announced she joined the track team that day. then when she got into high school, joined the swimming/diving team, where btw excelled without a lesson in her life, cross country, indoor track team and outdoor track team. her jr and sr years she pole vaulted for her school. all while not being very involved in many team activities while growing up.
my point being, whether the child is or is not involved in sports as a child, is no guarantee it will continue into adulthood, or even into their teenage years.
<<>>. my kids have pretty much blown that whole theory out of the water.

I went from a large C/small D to a DD. When I was in my first trimester with DS2, I told my sister on the phone that my breasts were already getting bigger and she burst out laughing at the thought of how huge they must be. Oh, well. When I'm skinny they look nice, I think. And DH always says that's the first thing he noticed about me (I, of course, noticed his eyes). I think I'll end up a C after I wean the baby, because they're already getting down to small D size.
