[quote=Anonymous]Hugs, OP and congratulations on your career change! I was a SAHM for a very long time then got offered a part time job with an organization in which I’d previously only volunteered. Truly happened overnight. My ILs couldn’t be less interested. I think they asked me once what the organization does and made their own assumptions. I recently received a huge promotion and although same company, I’m not sure they have the faintest idea what my job entails or care very much. Odd because for years (as a SAHM) I had to hear all about all of the “working moms” they knew and how these moms “had to work” or “chose to work” so they could provide fabulous whatevers for their families. Implication was I was lying about at home squandering DH money. I believe jealousy is the explanation here for both of us, OP. [/quote]
