Sort of, but generally speaking, in the work world, men are rewarded for having families and women's careers are penalized on multiple levels.

Dad's are paid more, more sympathetic and even cheered on when they leave early for the talent show. Women on the other hand are considered less committed, less capable and less flexible.

Is there a Paul Graham like post out there about children from a woman’s perspective?
