[quote=Anonymous]I distinctly recall putting away Tupperware in the pantry while on maternity leave and thinking that I would scream if I thought this was something I'd have to do every day. Everyone is different, and I have SAHM friends and WOHM friends. Generally speaking, the biggest reason any of us did one over the other was our personalities. I like my job and I love working and I also love the freedom that being able to outsource the things I don't like (cleaning, putting dishes away, etc.) provides. I have worked my way into a flexible job that still pays well and I love that when I hang out with my kids it's basically just "fun" time (other than cleaning up after dinner, which my husband and/or I do most nights plus making food on the weekends). Maybe if you viewed it as short-term it would help? But I'm with you - I felt the same way and was glad I was going to be able to go back to work after four months. [/quote]
