Advantages: Wider horizons for mum and financial independence in working. Disadvantages: Women can feel trapped at home.
, regularly long after the baby days are behind you.
One thing I'll never forget though was my gran because she was my rock and she really took the place of my mum all through my childhood and was someone I respected and adored. She was from the era before ours when a carpet lasted a lifetime, and when a game of cards was as important as a £7 cinema trip. You have to be current though when you think about these issues, because whilst childhood flourishes with attention and simplicity, adulthood is a lot more complicated than this.
I remember one day may years ago throwing a basket of ironing onto the lawn in frustration, it was something my children find amusing now they are grown up, but I guess it shows that staying at home is less than perfect sometimes. Conversely I remember when my youngest son started school, going back to work, and feeling ...

I must say that the actors did the best with the poor material that they have been given but it is not the best piece of work any of the actors have done. Affleck plays the role of Drew with a lot of gusto and really tries hard, sometimes a bit too hard. He plays his character with a childish naivety, which is sometimes a bit too over the top but didn't really work with the deadpan faces of the other actors. Applegate, who I thought was hilarious in her cameo in Friends, didn't make me laugh at all in this. I actually found her character quite dislikable.
