[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL was a SAHM and has not worked except occasional part-time volunteer jobs in 40+ years. She never asks me about work and calls / texts me regularly between 9am and 4pm to chat - and seems genuinely surprised that I am in a meeting or that I don’t have time to shop or research vacations during the day. I make 2x what her son does, but she would never cal him mid-day because “he’s working”. I think most of her friends were sahm too and she just has no concept what my day is like. [/quote] This! It is some lack of empathy or willingness to consider another experience.[/quote]
