I disagree. The women who raised the baby boom generation placed much more importance on the bearing and raising of children than women do today. Not only were there significantly fewer options, they were seen as mutually exclusive. If women did work after marriage, it was usually only until the first child was born. Now, women can choose to have careers *and* families. Moira Mallison tektronix!moiram
