实战口语情景对话 第1256期:Should mothers stay home with children? 母亲应该在家照顾孩子吗

Christophe: Hello, this is Christophe from Belgium and Aiste from Lithuania. Today's question is ... Should mothers stay home when the children are young? I think the mother's should definitely stay home. My mom was a single mother and she had to work immediately after the birth because she had to earn money to raise the children and I didn't really like that I preferred to have a mom that stays at home. You had a different situtation.
克里斯托夫：大家好，我是克里斯托夫，来自比利时，这位是艾斯蒂，来自立陶宛。今天的话题是，孩子小时候，母亲应该留在家里吗？我认为母亲绝对应该待在家里照顾孩子。我妈妈是单身母亲，她在生产后不得不马上工作，因为她要挣钱养孩子，我不喜欢那样，我希望妈妈留在家里照顾孩子。你的情况和我不一样。

Aiste: Well, young children ... My mom stayed with me for one year when I was really a baby and after she gave birth to me she made a break in her studies and she stayed with me for one year. Later I remember both my parents going to study or to work and some neighbor or my grandmother used to stay at home and take care of me but I went to kindergarten from two years old that's kind of early I think.
艾斯蒂：嗯，小孩子……我还是婴儿时，我妈妈在家照顾了我一年，她生产后暂停了学业，在家照顾了我一年。我记得，后来我父母就去上学或上班了，一些邻居或我的祖母会在家照顾我，我两岁时上的幼儿园，那个年龄是偏早的。
