acceptable to stay home and knit and bake should one so *choose,* 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.

Sorry so busy arguing about teh right to chose (odd using that phrase in
this context) forgot your point which I would agree with so I'll rephrase
work for which one is not paid. I currently get (under) paid for working
with children I know they are hard work. Difference is I get to go home at
4:00 and recover those who stay at home get nowt. I think if she hadn't
worked my Mum woyuld have killed me. I was a challenging child. You know the
kind that set teh wastepaper basket on fire while Mums back was turned to
see what would happen.  ..
