Women can be each other's enemy

I was reading one of my good friend's bloc a bit ago and she was talking about an author who had been interviewed and was saying how she does not think that women should stay home with their children. I remember that this same friend had sent me the link to the same interview and I had been so angry with this person's comments, they were rude and ignorant. I had told my mother about this article and she had said that she couldn't believe that this women had felt that she had the right to tell other women what to do with their lives, but she said she is probably my age (a young 64) and was part of the women's libe movement of the 60's. So, as my mother and I talked about this she was saying that she also was a strong believer and activist in women's rights but she stayed at home with us. My mom said the best thing "women's rites should not be about telling each other what to do but helping each other feel that they have the right to choose", she also commented that women need to be for each other not against each other. So, ladies lift one another up tell each other "you are doing a great job" or "you are a great mom", that is our calling as sisters.
