YES! I have fought this for years. I stayed home with my three kids and am still home. I take care of my husband and do all the "traditional" housewifey things. My youngest is 15 and she still needs me and loves that I am home. I can take care of her when she is sick and there is usually a nice meal when everyone comes home. I had so many women say things like:
"i wish I could afford to stay home"
"Why dont you volunteer, youre home anyway"
"must be nice"
"Do you ever think about doing something with your life?"
We give all sorts of credit to farmers raising cows and pigs and here I am raising HUMANS and I have to justify myself.
