September 29, 2008- First Blog

This particular blog, Dr Laura's blog, is one that I have read frequently. I picked this particular post because I feel like it not only has a lot to do with something that might be widely debated these days but also it is something that I personally have a strong opinion on. Being a new mother myself ( of a beautiful four month old baby girl ) I cannot imagine having to be in a full time job, not to mention one that can monopolize your time off the job, ( Mayor, Vice President, etc. ) and still be there for your child and husband. Yes women should have the same opportunities as men but when you make a choice to have a child, (not to mention five, like Palin) your child's welfare should outrank your need to "have it all". Children need to be raised by their parents, not daycares or other children. I think that Dr Laura does a good job of outlining this in her blog.
