[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is not an acceptable turn of phrase. But I am not offended because it shows the low character of the speaker. Just as if they had said they work FT because “I wanted to use my brain”[/quote] Literally been said to my face numerous times, during the times when it didn't work full time. And also, BOTH statements have truth in them. I DO use my brain more when I work full time and there IS someone else raising your child when you outsource childcare. [/quote] Another mom once told me -- a sahm at the time -- that she went back to work because she realize she was not qualified to care for her children and they needed to be with an expert in childhood development. And I was definitely insulted and also I know there are situations in which an actual expert in childhood development would have handled certain aspects of raising my kids better than I did. Sometimes the truth hurts. Everyone needs a thicker skin here.[/quote]
