Really? I am a SAHM with a very healthy financial resource and I still struggle. The kids being out of school, peri menopause, isolation from friends, and the General sadness of the world during a pandemic... I think I would feel better if I actually had something like outside work to call my own.

I’m glad you’re happy, PP, but please don’t try to speak for all of us SAHPs.

+1. Another SAHM here. Honestly wondering if I should get a job for some adult interaction. Was never an issue pre Covid.

As a working mom I can assure you that the benefit of being able to talk to my co-workers during the day does not equal to toll that working full-time from home is taking. I guess the grass is always greener. But hey, if you don't need the money, I'm happy to let me do your job and I'll keep collecting the salary since I need it.
