[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 736024, member: 1550"] I mostly stayed at home or had part time jobs when hub was home. I didn't want strangers raising my kids. Period. I worked at 19 at a classy (so called) daycare and was horrified at how they treated the kids when the parents were gone. And they talked badly about some kids and parents and gossipped. If I ever had thought of working this experience let me know that only I love my kids comepletely, warts and all. I wanted to be there all the time. No daycare workers would see my child's first steps. Some of the little kids at the daycare called me.mommy. I was with them more than Mom. Made sense. I don't think it was wrong to work!!! It was just not something I felt was a good choice for me or my kids. Daycare has benefits too! Please nobody take offense! Much learning and socializing is there! This was not popular thinking then. Most mothers worked full time. But I didn't want that. Yes, they had more money (shrug) but I raised my kids. I need er was I to having nice thing yeah. Still am not. In fact I am embracing minimalism these days. Our new house will not have extra clutter. I have no regrets at all. [/QUOTE]
