Well wow, I was trying to read through the whole thing, but then it seemed to be looping back and forth a bit. >.< All I have to say is, everyone in this entire world is different. The era where the only option is women cook at home and take care of the kids, and the man brings home the bacon is over. There are a plethora of different living situations and scenarios which can exist, and should exist, because we live in a world where people are encouraged to live their life how they choose it. To echo Michelle, someone who has a different opinion to yours doesn't make it a wrong one.
For myself, I had the choice of having an easy track towards a career. Living at home with the parents with no rent, part time job to pay for tuition costs, and tada, hello career. However, I made a choice instead, to put family first, and uprooted myself because I met the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. However in a couple years after some time has passed, and I've become more settled, I intend to get a career of some kind. I have strong aptitudes in math and sciences, and could choose a career to be able to comfortably take care of my family. As others have said, there's no reason you have to choose one or the other, and can't have both of them.
But I think everyone in this thread does seriously need to take a step back, and look at everything objectively, and not take others' opinions as a personal attack on their life choices. Because in this world, everything and anything is fair game. I mean look at all of us. How many people would tell you that long distance relationships never work out. :P
