Should you stop working when you have kids?

It all depends on the person. I have two children. I stopped working when my son was born. Then when he turned two I went back to work. Now I have a 10 month baby girl and i'll probably do the same thing.

you don't have to stop working, it would be your choice, whatever you would rather do. I know these day and times it takes both parents to work to make it.Cost of living is more than what it use to be back in the old days.

I don't think there is one right or wrong answer to this. I continued to work my full time very demanding job until my son was three. Then I realized that I was missing important times with my son that I'd never be able to get back and I quit that job. I still work, multiple part time jobs in fact. Sometimes I feel like I'm busier now than when I worked full time. But it's busy more on my own terms, which I love. But just because that was the right choice for me doesn't mean it is for everyone. You have to find your own path.

It all depends on your financial situation and the goals of the woman. The president of the company I used to work for was always telling me that women should never work outside the home. His wife had always stayed home with the kids. There were times I wanted to slap him, but I prudently didn't as I wanted to keep my job. I always thought that if he would pay my husband, who worked at the same place, more, I could afford to stay home, too.
