Honorary degrees. You didn't earn the degree. You may have big pockets and influence and you may be awesome in your field, but you still didn't earn the degree.

I want you all to come back and pass those gut wrenching difficult classes on intellect alone.

You're probably too sensitive. Most SAHMs get their panties in a twist very easily.

Really. So when the SAHMs decide to fling the insults back at you, I'm thinking your panties will be tightly twisted. We'll see, won't we?

and fathers?

Also, why do you allow your DDs to go to school? Wouldn't they be better off SH with you to learn how to cook and clean in heels and pearls?

Hyperbole helps no one PP, come back when you can make a reasonable argument

This is absolutely a reasonable argument. Moms without very little education can run a household successfully. I just hope your DDs find life more interesting than you.

What about your DH? Genuinely curious to know what you think about his role in parenting?

No it is not a reasonable argument.

Not sure why you think the person that has a penis to spread his sperm has equal parenting skills as a person who was biologically intended for childrearing

This makes me sad. There is nothing wrong with being a SAHM, but to think that parents have such unequal parenting roles and that women are solely designed to bear children and not have careers is just sad. I guess if you were born in the 1800s you would be okay not voting? You don't seem supportive of the progression of women's rights.

I support women's rights. I just don't buy into the "dads can be as good as moms" fad. I have never known a child to want their father when they are sick or hurt. I doubt you have either.

Mine do a lot. I'm a SAHM but DH is a hands-on father. He loves it.

Same here, PP.

When I hear that accusation, especially from a WOHM, it becomes crystal clear that there are some major insecurities at play. Why else would you make such judgmental and frankly, false, accusations about another person's life choices? Has it ever occurred to you that SAHMs could easily take on employment if they wished to, but they *choose not to*? I'm extremely organized, motivated, and intelligent - as are my other friends who are SAHMs. Your remarks just make you sound bitter and resentful. If you're so delighted with your life, then you shouldn't feel the need to knock down others who wouldn't be happy working outside the home. Right?"


"Choosing to be at home would make moms who would rather work martyrs."

Certainly. But moms who choose to be home because *that's what they want to do* aren't in any way martyrs. They'd rather be doing that than WOH. So good for them for following their bliss.

As long as they admit it, that's fine. MANY SAHMs do it mostly for themselves. And again, that's fine. But don't pretend it's to make a husband's life easier or enrich a child's.

You know, those things aren't mutually exclusive. I SAH because I want to and I enjoy it. But it is also true that my husband's life is easier and my child's life is enriched. And I'm happy about that. It's all good.

And most people aren't disagreeing with you on the reasons you SAH. However, my minority opinion of you is that you are lacking in some way. Either you are lazy, unintelligent, unmotivated, disorganized, a procrastinator, undisciplined, a stress case etc. All of the SAHMs I know, besides those with DC with very high level special needs or serious medical illnesses, have any combination of these traits.

You're right - that is a minority opinion and also extremely amusing. Clearly, you don't know the SAHMs I know, who make up a good percentage of the moms in my community. These are all very accomplished women who decided to leave their careers to SAH, some for a short time, others for much longer.

I'm sure you realize that you are lacking in some way - probably multiple ways - right? Do you really want to get into the many ways in which you are lacking? I thought educated, thoughtful people had put the mommy wars behind them. You must not fall into that category.

It's actually not amusing. I find it sad for the families and the SAHMs. Most of my neighborhood is SAHMs and this describes the majority of them. Some left careers and others never had one. The vast majority that left their careers wouldn't be considered "very accomplished" in their short amount of years in their careers.

And if you'd like to talk about me, let's go ahead. I don't believe I'm lacking in any ways. Don't mistake that for being perfect, because that's subjective anyways.

This is only a fun game to play with you.

Nope. WOHM's spew more vitriol than most posters in the politics forum.

You might want to go back and re-read.

I did. I stick to my conclusion.

You're just wrong.

My opinion of YOU is that you lack credibility. Your "opinion" of a large population of people (SAHMs) is based on a handful of people that you clearly do not respect. You are assigning character traits to thousands of people you have never met. Your post suggests that you lack intelligence and interpersonal skills. I would have to get to know you better to get a better idea of your character traits.

It's all making sense now - you're the OP of the other thread, about bitterness overtaking your life. I'm so, so sorry, PP. It must truly suck to be you.

Snort. You are by far the most obnoxious poster I've ever seen on DCUM. And that's saying a lot. What a pill you must be to live with. Your insecurities and inadequacies have made you completely intolerable. But then, you know that. That's why all the self-loathing. You're right though - this is a fun game. Buh bye, troll!

Well, for one, your grammar, punctuation, and utter lack of logic are atrocious. So much for your "education."

If you're such a clever girl, why can't you quote properly on DCUM?

I'm not actually sure what you're sad about here. a)Women are raising their own children b) DH's earning enough to they can have a SAHM c) The DW's trusting their DH enough to know that he will not try to put his dick into the nearest wohm at his office or d) The SAHM overcoming (or never having) insecurities about their intellect. No wait, now I can see why you would find this sad.
