SAHMs returning to the workforce, would you feel guilty about this?

Get it girl! Don't feel bad for a second. You can empathize ("It's a tough job market....") but don't for a second feel bad. You've went to school to strengthen your background. Have they? (Not saying they haven't, but just curious.) Never feel bad for something you have worked for. You can feel sorry for them, but do NOT feel guilty. Be proud of your accomplishments - you deserve it!
