Hi folks,

If you get a chance, write to NEWSWEEK as I did. I can't stand this 
notion that people can't be good parents if they work outside the 
home. And the world out there (read media) hasn't caught up to the 
option many of us have discovered - working from home in a virtual office.

It's time to wake them up!

best,

Amy Zuckerman
