I think this is fallacy that kids need parents so much less as they get to teenage years that there is “time to pursue a career” outside the home.

Perhaps, perhaps not. I suppose it depends on the career and the kids.”;;;;;;;;;;;;

Look at how many people smoke, they almost never start smoking as adults.

They do it as children or teenagers because of peer pressure.

There are many more indications that kids are not being raised properly, which are not as visible.

::::::::::”The Columbine shooters, were left alone while their parents pursued their high powered careers.

And Hitler was a vegetarian. But vegeterianism (whatever else you might think of it) doesn’t lead one to kill six million people.”:::::::::

Actually there is a VERY strong and clear relation between vegetarianism and hatred of Jews.

All the animal rights wackos, hate Israel and can’t wait to see it destroyed.

They also love to post peoples home addresses and phone numbers on the internet in order to promote violence against anyone they falsly accuse of abusing animals.

;;;;;;;;;;”like pursuing her Dressage hobby

A hobby is much different than a career in terms of necessity and purpose.”;;;;;;;;

How about power walking, in the Mall?

“;;;;;;;;;In addition, bringing an example from one person who crazily values her horses more than her kids is hardly proof that mothers doing anything other than mothering is bad.”;;;;;;;;;

It is just one example out of many I have brought, throughout this thread.

;;;;;;;;;”This is what feminism causes.

No, that was caused by one person’s misplace values and bad judgement.”;;;;;;;;;;;

It was an example of typical attitudes among feminists.

;;;;;;;;”That being aside, I don’t think I have to defend my wife to you, but I will say this.”;;;;;;;;;

I am not G-d, HE is the one you will obne day have to defend yourself and the ideas YOU suoported and advocated, as will I, as will your wife.

;;;;;;;”Eeees remained at home for the kids through their formative years. She made sure to be there for them whenever it was necessary. My youngest (Wilma*) is now approaching fourteen and going to high school this year. For the past few years Wilma and her siblings have been in school during the day, so my wife took the opportunity to go back to school.

Guess what? She makes sure to be home when they get home. It should be noted that we never left our kids with a babysitter on a regular basis.**

Starting in September, Wilma and all her siblings will be in high school. They will be away for longer stretches of the day. There is absolutely no reason why she should just sit around the house while they are at school. If she can go to school while they are there, there is no reason for her not to do so.

In addition, there is the fact that we need the extra salary that she will be bringing in. Yeshiva tuition is expensive and although I make a nice salary, it sometimes is just not enough. That was another motivation for her to go back to school.

Lastly, when she does graduate this year, she will be in a profession where she can make her own hours and keep her schedule flexible. This will allow her to be free to attend to the needs of the kids if she so desires.”;;;;;;;;;;;

If you are the exception where you have found a way to do it without missing on second of being with the kids so that when they make a decision later in life as a CEO to fire someone when they should have had compassion and not fired them, but did not know that because there would have been on day that G-d (not me)

would judge you for

Then good for you.

Then this is not about “you”.

;;;;;;;;;”As I said, I don’t need to justify our family decisions to you or anyone else. Nonetheless, I chose to respond. If you don’t like it, well… too bad. “;;;;;;;;

I responded to your GENERAL statement, and too bad if you do not like THAT.
