SAHMs do a lot of plopping their kids in front of the TV. Which is more valuable? Interacting with peers and teachers or watching TV?
I used to be in the Norcal camp, firmly believing that kids raised by a fulltime Mom was by far superior. I am not as sure anymore. |

True. But if momma ain't happy, nobody's happy.

I don't mind her because she shares my (and my wife's) worldview on seperate but equal roles of men and women and the importance of dedicating oneself to raising children, even at the cost of some personal sacrifice. I'm not making myself out to be a hero on this, because there are some things I'm fine with sticking up my thumb at the church over and doing my own thing. So anyway, since I'm in line with Beck's views I'm cool with her. However, she definitely has an arrogant, overbearing style that could grate on you if you're not 100% in line with her.

Yep and if Mama ain't happy for too long, she ain't gonna be happy with half your stuff.

I read the piece quickly. My initial response is I see no problems. Seems to me she gave due respect to education and those who choose to pursue a career.
She gave her opinion that choosing the motherhood course is preferable to a career, but as long as I read it as her opinion and not her citing God as the authority for her opinion, I have no problem. |
