[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you all arguing about schedules and hours? You don't need to prove something how your schedule is superior to someone else. People have different lives, so what[/quote]

Well this whole thread is about how many hours you spend with your kids so....[/quote]

And of course SAHM’s spend more, so the whole argument is stupid. [/quote]

Emphatic +1 from this working mom!  You can't nurture, shape, stimulate, enrich, educate, love on, etc. a sleeping infant or toddler.  WOHMs are with their awake kids less hours in the day than a SAHM is with her awake kids.  Maybe it is only like 3-4 less hours numbers-wise at certain stages, but that is actually a large chunk of that kid's waking hours.  Think about if your kids' school day was cut by like 2-3 hours...that would make a difference in their education, right, because the school day is only 7 hours to begin with?  Now, whether and in what ways it matters that kiddo is with paid care instead of mom???...sure have at it, argue away, I guess.  But absent a very unique working schedule, the above is true of course that SAHMs are with their kids more.  Just silly...  [/quote]
