Again, all done by full time working parents. I respect my wife so much because she does everything that people praise stay at home parents for doing with a full time job. Not only does my wife do all of that with a job she also did it while completing her 2nd Master's degree.
She does not do everything a stay at home mother does...sorry
She leave work to taxi kids around in the middle of the day to soccer, t ball, karate?
She duck out the office early to have dinner ready when you get home?
Do you pay someone to clean your house?
Who stays home when the kids are sick and can't go to school/work?
How many hours on a typical week day do your kids get to spend quality time with a parent?
I don't think there's anything wrong with both parents working and it's what most choose but don't act like there aren't sacrifices ...I know families with one income makes them to get what they want.

Maybe she's a teacher and has the same schedule s the kids.
Maybe she's a teacher and can get home by 4 to get dinner ready.
Maybe she's not a lazy piece of shite and keeps the house clean as the week goes by. Even better, maybe her husband isn't a lazy piece of shite and helps clean the house.
Maybe they have grandparents around. Maybe she takes off work on those rare times that a kid is sick.

She leave work to taxi kids around in the middle of the day to soccer, t ball, karate? We do dance, gymnastics, and soccer. None of those are in the middle of the day.
She duck out the office early to have dinner ready when you get home? No. She is off at 4:30pm and dinner is ready at 7pm when I get home.
Do you pay someone to clean your house? No.
Who stays home when the kids are sick and can't go to school/work? We take turns.
How many hours on a typical week day do your kids get to spend quality time with a parent? This is definitely an area that we lack.

Their kids are in day care. They don't get sick because it gives them a super-duper immune system. Didn't you read the link?
And everyone ignored the elephant in the room from the OP. He retired and is home all the time. She wants to work now so she can be away from him. What's wrong with you people? Pretty obvious and not sure why no one mentioned it.
