I have little respect for parents that put their kids in daycare (barring extreme circumstances; death, disability, etc.). To be blunt, I think they're bad parents.

My wife is a licensed Civil Engineer and very accomplished and intelligent. She is also a full time mother. I wouldn't marry anybody that didn't want to take care of her own kids and likewise, I wouldn't recommend any girls marry a guy that can't support them. It's pretty simple. I also think it's my responsibility as a husband and father to take care of the kids. I do my share.

If I was a Bishop, I would never even consider calling a working Mom to be in the Primary, YW or RS presidency (unless the Spirit dictated it, which would knock me for a loop).

In my opinion, nothing is more important than raising your children in the best manner possible. When you have your first, your needs and wants should become secondary.

I say Sister Beck is right on. Power to her!

In my opinion, nothing is more important than rasing your children in the best manner possible. When you have your first, your needs and wants should become secondary.

I don't like you.

Sorry if I didn't sugarcoat it. Sometimes the truth hurts.

Now let me clarify. I don't think working Mom's are evil. I think they're misguided and misled. So are their husbands. Their priorities are all out of whack.

TIGER, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder and what art
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand and what dread feet?

What the hammer? what the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? What dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears,
And water'd heaven with their tears,
Did He smile His work to see?
Did He who made the lamb make thee?

Tiger, tiger, burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

I agree. No way this is legit. This is obviously somebody posing as a mullah.

Yes, what a radical concept; People should take care of their own children. It seems pretty simple to me. There's no flaw in my logic.

Are you a polygamist?

Nope. I've got nothing against polygamy when the Lord commands it. (I do have something against child molesters and welfare frauds).
