More like a few million, really. . .

I say they should get at least $500,000 for enduring pregnancy and childbirth.

(if you're wondering how and I why I came to reply to this, I saw this on Tygerr's friend list and it really caught my attention. . .)

And I'm happy someone is finally trying to assign a "salary" to the very hard and demanding work of being a mother. It is a JOB and yet I hear so many folks talk about mothering as if it is NOT work (and that burns me up ----even though I don't have kids. but I have a mother, however and I'm not deaf, blind or dumb. . .)

Thanks for posting this. . .

Just think of all the value you are adding to your household without having to declare it to the IRS!
