[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10:00, calm the #$@! down.  People like you who make nasty, overgeneralizing comments about other posters are *actually* the problem with DCUM.  I think it *is* offensive to look at working moms with pity and imply that they just didn't have a very good lot in life to get stuck working.  Not that WOHM moms do the same thing - people on both sides of this issue openly pity people who aren't in their own camp.

But yes, I, too, can't stand when I tell people that I work and they tell me how "blessed" they are to be able to work, they could never let someone else raise their child.  [/quote]

I have managed to obtain the elusive 'balance'.  I work from home during my children's school hours.  I see my kids as much as any SAHM.  I pull an impressive salary with great health benefits.  Granted I couldn't do all of the Costco, grocery, target, home depot runs to the degree somebody that a SAHM with kids in school  may be capable of...but I live in close-in/walking distance to groceries, etc. so I can get a lot done on a work breake.  I sometimes pick up slack a few hours on the weekend or a night or 2 a week.  It is fantastic.  As long as my kids are happy, I'm happy and DH is happy--we are good.[/quote]
