*ahem.* While I agree with your posting about it being perfectly acceptable to stay home and knit and bake should one so *choose,* I must point out with some emphasis at this juncture that, as a mother of three children under six, I have in no way, shape, or form given up working. I work like a galley slave. I'm considering escaping to the grownup world of work days that end and whole stretches of hours at a time where I don't have to take anyone to the potty! But I must say that "not working" is every bit as challenging, time-consuming, and fulfilling as most paying careers. Rethink your mental boxes, youngling.
