What do you think of people that hire a ton of help

[Anonymous]

I think I wish I had their income. I'd absolutely do the same. There's so much more juicy stuff to judge people for!

If it allows them to be better parents I think they are smart and I’m jealous (in a good for you way).

I’m a SAHM with three kids and a husband that makes just under seven figures. We have zero hired help other than occasional babysitters and no family near. I feel a lot of guilt if I need to resort to tv so I can go clean the toilets.

Huh? Your husband makes just under a million a year (7 figures) and you have no help?What am I missing?

You are missing nothing, I think it is bananas too. Not that I want a full staff, but a weekly house cleaner would be glorious. In fairness, he does his best to help me cleaning, but just isn’t home much to help.

Might be one of these situations where the guy makes/controls money, and believes, because his wife "doesn't have a real job", she should be able to manage the home without any help.

Why do SAHMs need so much help? Seriously, if you don't work you can clean your own house and mind your own kids. Isn't that the point?

No. The point is to be there for the kids, not be a house maid.

This is what I would want. I love my kids. I would spend all day playing with them, doing crafts, taking them places, etc.... but the cleaning, laundry, and cooking gets backed-up and I am sick of spending my weekends catching up.

Me too. Hate cleaning. Love playing with the kids

Sorry but you’re not a child that gets to play all day. Adults should have responsibilities like having a paid job, or if not, then running the house along with taking care of kids. And unfortunately cooking and cleaning are part of that. I’m not against getting some help with the cleaning by hiring maids to come in once a week or twice a month or whatever but how can you expect to play all day like your 5 year old just because it’s more fun? You need to grow up a little.

I stay home to be there for my kids and enrich them, not clean the house all day. We live in a 12,000sf house. I would be cleaning all day if we didn’t have help. I like to have a clean house but don’t enjoy cleaning.

Good thing you aren't in charge of other women's lives! We get to decide for ourselves and no, in our household we outsource cleaning.
