Response to Tricia's Post

Tricia:
You make some excellent and telling observations about men and women at work. I wonder how many women actually take less active roles at work so their husbands can advance.It seems in most cases that if two-income families have children, the mother takes the lead in giving up her career opportunities, taking care of the children such as staying home when they're sick and putting their jobs in jeopardy if their employers are unsympathetic.This is because women in our society are expected to be the caretakers. Women seem to have to make a choice between career and children -- a choice men do not have to make!
