Hearing that E-Doubles (Eric)wife (Joanne)can now choose stay at home mom,or work outside the home reminds me of the parental self inducdes guilt trip.Lots of new parents on the board and I just want them to know that they are not alone in the struggle for a balanced life. Heres a essay I love from the book Mommy wars.I think both Mommies ans Daddies feel this way.I haven't read the book yet it's by Leslie Morgan Stiener and is mentioned in the March 2006 Parents Magazine. I highly recommend this magazine for those with a child or one on the way the article have pertanant info from pregacy to about 13 years of age.They have a website too and every months lots of giveaways.

" When I'm at work,I wish I were hometending to my children.When I'm home,I think longingly of work,Where I have space,can breathe.
The only time I feel as if I know who I am is in the car,when I ride bareheaded between my two hats,neither here nor there."
