That article made me so angry I was shaking. Seriously. And then I felt bad, because I'm completely in favor of women staying home if that works for them and their family--my own mother stopped working after I was born--but God, the unexamined assumptions.
(This may have been mostly an emotional reaction to the fact that in the increasingly unlikely event I have children, the idea of being trapped at home all day every day with a toddler sounds vaguely like a circle of hell. Maybe not the ninth, but a circle, for sure.)
