I definately want to be home with my children when they are little, but I don't want to give up on my career aspirations either. My mom didn't have to, and I don't think I should have to either.
Yup, both my parents worked too, I stayed with my God Mother when my parents were at work, but my Dad was still the provider. That's just how I was raised. The man must provide for his wife. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. That's Biblical.
