My sister and her husband both work. She took three months off for maternity leave after my nephew was born, and then went back to work. She's lucky because we have a huge family, so relatives always watched my nephew when he was an infant and toddler, and she knew he was well-cared for. They simply can't afford to have one person stay home, and I don't even think my sister would want to honestly. Just depends on the personality. :) The world is a different place now, it seems there are many more disturbed people all over the globe, or maybe we just hear about them more often due to the free flow of information via the Internet and 24 hour news cycle. Not sure. :) But I'm sure there has been some study done on this topic.
