Just read the Janice Turner article in todays Times!! "Six month paternity? Give me a break" What aload of cobblers on the sahm.
The bit that goes on about how a career woman will have "squandered her education, talent drained" by staying at home to look after her kids!!!! COMPLETE RUBBISH -
This annoys me so much that sahm are thought to just need no education - in fact the article states this when Turner goes on about womens education. She writes that if women are educated to key professions that they must be kept there & that women doctors give 15 yrs less service than their male counterparts. So what do you mean here then ???? all educated mums to to not use their intelligence bringing up their kids?? to be kept tied to their jobs out of the home???
I'm a sahm that has a good education & left a career to look after my kids. I grasped the opportunity to be with my children. To me the most important job in the world & by the sounds of it the least valued.
