I find that you're being totally oversensitive, overzealous and oversanxious to write a long post criticizing someone on their opinions. You do not know me, do not know anything about my so-called prejudices, etc. You shouldn't tell someone that they're prejudiced when you're being entirely judgmental on your own right.
I was using an extreme example. Where is the line, then? Yes they're two different things, but where's the line? If you're going to make an exception for one circumstance, why not all circumstances? it's more of a theoretical question.
And if i'm prejudiced for thinking that a teenager with a child shouldn't be spending her "spare" time between class, raising a child, work, etc worrying about being in a sorority and all the hours of time involved, then so be it. Never knew I was prejudiced for valuing my ideal that one should spend time with her child.
Again, it's not leaving the child to go to work, or school or something else. It's to do a mainly social activity.
It's different that a mom having friends, going out, etc. Myself and everyone else in my chapter put a lot of time in. It's not equivalent in any way to going out once or twice a week and leaving the kid with a sitter.
Hey, it might work in some chapters, but it wouldn't work in mine. And it wouldn't work in most chapters.
