I don't think having a job or not says anything about your dedication to your children.
Also, you say it's "a given" that men work and women take care of the house and children. What? Just because it's been that way doesn't mean it's right for everyone. Again, a lot of these posts come across to me as saying that if woman wants to have children she should stay home where she belongs. What about if both parents work in careers that make them really happy and equally split household duties and child rearing. Would that be worse than having one "proper parent" -- whatever that means. I know people who stay home with their kids who are horrible parents and many two-career households where it's a partnership and the kids are loved, well taken care of and wonderful.
