I think the best solution would be for both partners
to take turns (a year or two each, at least until the
child gets into nursery school or something).  This
would only work if each is capable of earning enough
to support three; not necessarily the same amount, but
it would probably have to be close.

For this reason alone it would be nice to marry someone
of my own economic "class" (NO FLAMES!) if given a choice.
Not that anyone has a choice about such things--I don't expect
to *select* the person I fall in love with.

Granted it could be a pain in the ass at times, but there 
must be a lot of rewards to raising the kid(s) also.  It'd
be kind of neat to take a year or two off of "work"...

Then with a terminal and net "connection" I would have the 
time to be as prolific as some of the rest of you--uh oh, 
maybe I shouldn't have given you any warning...
