Hi Sandy, I feel so lucky that through all the "child rearing" years, I was
able to stay home and "play" with the kids and have the outlets for myself.
I thank that in alot of ways, Feminism allowed me to make the choice and not
feel like I was giving anything up. I was 21 when my DS Josh was born and 4
years later DD Amanda came along. We really grew up together and I played
along with them. We did so many fun things together. My grown up kids all
work and have a "career". My DDIL hasn't even considered staying home with
soon2B DGC. So, I will do it all over again, but not full-time. It will be
fun to read to a baby, color, finger-paint, swim etc all over again. A

Hi Linda. It's wonderful that you did have that choice, and you're right
that feminism did help with that sort of thing. G I was sort of
teasing in my comment. But I had to work, and that was fine with me
since I've never been really comfortable with babies. I much prefer
children when they're walking, talking and potty trained! LOL! We're all
different. And BTW, I became a grandmother for the first time at 52, so
I was young, too! Have fun!
