But, who stays home to raise the kids? Somebody has to do it. Unfortunately, this means one partner must give up a career much too often. Children need parental attention and they can be deprived of this if both parents continue to work full time. If both partners want to pursue their careers full-time, they have some serious decisions to make if they want kids. -- Chuck Ferrara @ U. Va.
