@patric7olicoe Not everyone agrees with everything being "gender neutral" until a kid is old enough to say they are a boy or girl or nonbinary. Some people want to have a name picked out early- my kids first name was decided within an hour of getting the NIPT results. My kid was born with a...

@merekas I wanted to be a stay at home mom, 100%. However, our area and situation would have made it a necessity. We live in a daycare 'desert' (ONE licensed day care in the entire county, only has space for less than 10 infants), I wouldn't even be bringing $80 per week home after taxes...
