My husband had to work 90 hour weeks for the past three weeks because his coworker got put on bedrest. I know that there are lots of women who don't have husbands, and have to earn a living for their precious children. In my opinion, life is full of tough choices. Be a mommy or be a good employee. At least while your precious babies are nursing, if not until they are in school.
Life is full of choices.
The men don't have it all, either. Erma Bombeck put her beloved writing career on hold for a few years while her three children were small. She went back to writing a column after a few years sabbatical, and wound up with more money and fame than she probably ever dreamed of. I'm sure this will generate, I'm not including my email address. Feel free to post your comments in the public forum.
