Barbara Bush: I Respect Ann Romney for the Decisions She Made “There are choices in life, and I think it’s great. But I also think that if you stay at home and raise five great children, which I immodestly say I have done, why, I think it was worth the trip,
do also know that you have an opportunity to give back by volunteering, and the Romneys do. That’s their background. I knew his mother and father. They were the greatest volunteers in the world. He actually started the feeling for George for the Points of Light foundation, which has helped thousands and millions of Americans. So I'm not critical of Hilary, but I'm just sorry that she took a knock at those of us who chose and were able, I must confess, able is a very important part of that, to stay home and take care of their children.”
