Trump to pull feds out of K-12 education

I'm sure you have noticed that many many times that is not good enough.

I've definately noticed that many refuse to try it!

Well, like I was trying to explain to someone several days ago, I quit my civil engineering job to become a stay at home mom.  My new role requires that I clean the house, cook food, do laundry, wash dishes, etc.  I don't think I should be given kudos for scrubbing toilets and showers.

Perhaps not on a daily basis but you definately should be for making the decision to do it in the first place!  Just my humble opinion.

Ok, good job to President Trump.  That should cover me for anything positive he may do in the future that he is supposed to be doing.

First, for giving your children priority over another career: Kudos.

Second: Hygiene is important, keeping a clean house is important, clean clothes are important, clean dishes are important, well cooked and nutritious meals are important. (Anyone who doesn't think so, quit all that for a week).

You haven't farmed that out to someone else, but have taken on those aspects of raising your children, providing an example to the. Again, Kudos!

Why is it that so many people who deserve recognition and praise don't think so.

Good for you!! 34 years ago my wife quit her full time job to become a full time mom and has never regretted that decision. Being a mother was much more fulfilling than being the chief loan officer at a local bank.

Now, if we can just get some grandkids started.........

And I bet that CE background contributed mightedly to decisions made around the household over all those years.

Don't have regrets, just look toward the future.  Wait until the grandkids come, it will all be worth it many times over.

My sister did the same thing with her engineering job and wound up with 6 kids and now grandkids.  She would never change it for anything.

I've known dozens of female engineers over the years who gave up their careers to raise kids, and none of them have regretted the choice.

A young woman from our Church was a top notch geologist working for Exon prior to becoming a wife and now mother of two.

When Terri Land ran for senate in Michigan a few years ago she spoke of women like herself having had made personal choices that led to women making less than men. Feminists went ballistic but Land was correct that women take more time off work and should not be paid more to make up for it. She herself took a couple years off from her career to raise a child.
