[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do too. I just don't get paid for it as I see no reason to take a job from someone who needs it. My moral responsibility is my family- always first- and then using my time and resources to help others.[/quote]

NP here. You sound really classist and patronizing. Please stick to your mom gig and keep your 'help' to yourself.[/quote]

No- it's annoying to hear what you choose to do constantly demeaned on here. Especially from people I don't believe, like the "human rights lawyer" eho found being a SAHM as a vacation. Talk about patronizing.[/quote]

Eh, I stayed home for a few years with young kids when I was laid-off during the recession and it took a while to find a job that paid enough to justify the expense of childcare, and while it was a little stressful to have only one income and not know when I would find work again, my life was for sure easier when I was at home in comparison with when I was working.

Do you find that patronizing that I shared this experience?[/quote]

No, sharing your experience is fine. Nothing wrong with saying, "staying home was easy FOR ME."  The problem is that people who had an easy experience often assume that all others have an identical experience. As if all children and family situations are the same.

This is very true. It is also ridiculous, however, for someone to assume that all WOHPs have a lunch hour to themselves everyday, can afford house cleaners, etc. There seem to be a lot of mass generalizations & ridiculous assumptions made about both SAHPs' & WOHPs' daily lives on DCUM! [/quote]
