[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 133895, member: 1944"] I totally agree moreluck, not to make this about me, my time has come and gone. but maybe try to help xkingx, and Ms spoken, who I know are doing this job, and living with the guilt that society puts on working moms. I had boys, who for the most part had those deadbeat dads. They grow up respecting women, and with a distaste for loafers. And are both borderline workaholics, and bring their work home, but at least they have the ability to do some work from home. As we do not. One son has four children and is the BEST dad in the world as he grew up without one. His wife stays at home and they make it just fine. But they knew when I didnt make it to stuff, it wasnt coz I was out partying, I was working, and thats a big difference. Actually they would try to make me go out on the weekends. But I got that out of my system early, not quite early enough, but I wanted to be home when I could. Going out wasnt on my list of things to do back then, I was also going to college, more time away from home. Both of my boys have better degrees than I and they paid for them. They never even thought about quitting school or not going to college. And both did it more timely than I. So whether they learned through example, Id like to think so, but I always still feel bad for all I missed, but when I bring it up, they always say, stop Mom, you did great for all you were doing back then. Then I am comforted. Thats very rewarding. Kids will understand alot more than we give them credit for. [/QUOTE]
