"<BR/><BR/>I think this is exactly it. It seems like some link was broken a couple generations back. The skills surrounding parenting and running a household became diminished until they hardly exist anymore. I know when I came home to be with the kids it was almost like I was learning a new language, trying to deal with kids and home was so foreign to me. <BR/><BR/>I am not even talking about championing SAHMhood or anything, just the fact that the skills that typically went along with that role went away as more woman went to work. Yet, people still need to know how to handle a baby and make a home a sanctuary, but it isn't happening and it is starting to show in horrible ways like medicating toddlers to sit still.<BR/><BR/>I could go on forever about this topic though and won't hijack your blog for it. Thank you for coming back to share your rant though... You always make me think!candynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12904539285373868227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148717864140954209.post-4847840890140622972008-04-09T13:09:00.000-04:002008-04-09T13:09:00.000-04:00You know, no pressure or anything, but I miss your...You know, no pressure or anything, but I miss your blog rants. "Talk to the blog.." that really and truly has to be made into a sticker or a little graphic thingy to put on a blog...can you do that...I mean, between moving and scraping out bags of detritus?<BR/><BR/>I just cleaned the school room yesterday. HUGE lawn type garbage bag. Where does it come from indeed? We've been here two and 1/2 years with much of our stuff still back in the Midwest? How much money would've I saved in NOT buying that "stuff"?? What will you do in a smaller house? How will that change things? Have I mentioned you're my current inspiration lately? Tuck that away when you're cleaning....someone out here finds you inpsiring! (Probably more than me...)Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06803076690568937515noreply@blogger.com
