Email of the Day

Dear Dr. Laura,

Recently a news story about a software developer who was caught outsourcing his job to China has gone viral. I overheard a woman at the grocery store checkout line commenting about what a shameful action it was, and how lazy that man was for simply not doing the job he was hired to do.

I laughed, and when she asked what was so funny, I said that working mothers who put their children in daycare do it ALL THE TIME and no one chides THEM for it. It was awesome, watching my meaning dawn on her. The look on her face was priceless.
