Many of the moms at my sons school stay at home, and a few are bit vocal about it. They are able to volunteer in the classrooms, etcetera. Which is fine. As a working mom, I can't do that, and instead donate supplies to my sons class. Recently, a stay at mom of one of my sons friends asked me if I was still working. I replied, "of course," and thought gee, what planet is she living on? Some one else asked me that a few days later, and I began to realize that, with so many imminent layoffs in education, the questions about whether or not I am working have to do with the lousy economy, not the work vs. stay home issue.
