My wife is a licensed Civil Engineer and very accomplished and intelligent. She is also a full time mother. I wouldn't marry anybody that didn't want to take care of her own kids and likewise, I would recommend any girls marry a guy that can't support them. It's pretty simple. I also think it's my responsibility as a husband and father to take care of the kids. I do my share.

If I was a Bishop, I would never even consider calling a working Mom to be in the Primary, YW or RS presidency (unless the Spirit dictated it, which would knock me for a loop).

In my opinion, nothing is more important than raising your children in the best manner possible. When you have your first, your needs and wants should become secondary.

I say Sister Beck is right on. Power to her!
