I'm not amazed at some of the reactions to this show but I am appalled. I'm young (late 20s) so I never experienced the struggle that women had to go through to even remotely be treated as equals to men. However, the fact that people are bashing women who choose not to stay home with their children and feel it's neglectful is ridiculous. Why should a woman have to put her dreams and ambitions on hold? Why are men not held to this standard? No one would ever condemn a father for going to work everyday instead of being a stay at home dad. Whatever decision a woman chooses is her own personal decision and is right for her and her family. Think about all of the incredible achievements women have made! Women are capable of anything... not just raising incredible men. Let these women make their contributions to the world as they see fit.

I agree. We should be applauding these women for working so hard at a career AND a family. Not beating them down or making them feel guilty like they are horrible mothers.
