in guest post: working parents are not a bad thing on brip blap
Thanks for this well-written commentary. Both my husband and I had two working parents and everyone turned out fine. We are quite close to our parents so no adverse effects. I think women tend to feel guilty but if it's any consolation, many kids of working women (like me) love their moms just as much as those with stay-at-home parents!

in the myth of the parent that NEEDS to work on brip blap
If it's any consolation, there's equal pressure and judgement upon women who choose to work after having children. In fact, I think there's more judgement made upon women who are highly educated and don't work. It's not right either way.
However, I do think that if you are a women who went to college and accumulated a ton of debt, then work 5-10 years before quitting, then college definitely wasn't worth it.
