"BTW, there is one class of kids who consistently benefit from a SAHM. They are higher SES kids whose mothers are college educated. SES and maternal education are two of the biggest predictors of how kids turn out and it appears when you have the SES without mom working her education benefits her kids more if she is home."

Wow, Cindy. I never thought I'd see the day you'd say something like this.

I think one of the reasons I always have a hard time relating to your anti-sah bias is that the sahms in my neighborhood are generally college-educated.
