Even though money is necessary, that is not the only thing needed to raise children effectively. You save gobs of costly things by being with the children. That is the primary focus and if other things can be included like volunteer work, hobbies, social activities, etc., then great. It can balance your life to do other things but the key is balance and well being of the children. I feel anyone who wants to pursue other money making ideas can. However, it should not be a requirement of a person already saving expenses by staying with the children.

Work-for-money is the way the economic system keeps us enslaved and bound to it. Choosing to opt out of that slavery to the system and do unpaid work out of love is a way of starting the revolution.

At least, that's what I say when people ask, "so do you work from home?"

Beautifully beautifully said, thanks!
