some things never change
And yet again, I wonder how I turned out the way I did: My mother stopped working when I was born, and right now (if I even do have children), it is not what I want.
On the other hand, maybe it is not all that curious, my mother spoke of resentment at her few feasible career options, and in some ways she almost felt forced into teaching. In an English class at the University of Houston, a professor told her friend that A Streetcar Named Desire was not an appropriate play for a lady to do a report on for an assignment. Perhaps she would have felt more motivated to return to teaching if she didn't feel that it was increasingly more frustrating.

Ladies, choosing to stay home with the kids is fine, but "this is a decision that males don't have to make?" That's Bullshit.
