[quote=Anonymous]OP here - well, I would also characterize my post/position as "defensive". But not in a negative way; just in a questioning way. For example: I run a mom's group and sometimes people join who work either part-time or full-time and were SAHMs prior, and they will say "I am so glad to be using my brain again". I don't take it personally because I don't feel that I don't use my brain, but I wonder if they think I don't use my brain. What's ironic is I felt that way sometimes at work when I had tedious things that needed to be done. But raising kids is something I always looked forward to, so maybe that's part of it. Yes there is stress, and housework of course but that needs to be done whether I am at home or not. [/quote]
