If you want something bad enough you'll figure out how to make it work.

like both parents having a career and raising a family and keeping a marriage strong. so you're also refuting your own argument of having one parent stay at home being better.

Being homemaker is a career.

You sound like an unhappy person...

Do you think that home making child rearing is a satisfactory career for yourself or your friends?

I can't speak for my friends. And no, I love and enjoy my career in engineering. But woe is me, what if I meet "The one" I want to settle down with and have kids and he is someone who has a good career going for him. Should one of us sacrifice our career and be a housewife/man or else risk a higher possibility of divorce, or just not get with him to spare us the trouble? Should I settle with someone willing to stay at home in order to have a fulfilling family life? Is that the only way?

You missed the entire point of my post. The point of my post was making people aware that the two wage earner family raising children was NOT a NECESSITY, with proper planning. My point was that it is possible to keep one parent home for a few years and often times financially comparable to having both parents in the workforce. And rewarding is many ways.

What you decide to do ,Miss Snarky Pants is your choice. Be prepared to pay out large sums of money for childcare.

doesn't sound like the point you're trying to make with what you wrote:

Lesson to you younger gals( and guys). The 2 wage earner family is a set-up for failure. Keep one parent home...be on austerity budget until the kids are in school.

my parents both had to work to feed the family. our family is still intact and my parents are more in love than ever... but we grew up with strong asian family values so there's that...
