Dear Dr. Laura,
I wanted to take a moment to thank you for all you do to advocate for children and stay-at-home moms. I was raised by a stay-at-home mom and am thankful for the love, attention, and teaching my mom gave to me. She was so picky about who I was around that she decided to have me skip kindergarten and attend first grade the next year. She did not like the kindergarten teacher.
I recently commented on a post about daycare on Facebook. I was immediately responded to with 'defensive' counter-comments to my assertion - that kids need their moms. I think it's sad. I'm sure I will receive nastier replies but I don't really care. If my comment sways a mom to be at home with her child, instead of farming them out to a daycare, it's worth the backlash.
Your devoted listener,
Jamie
