[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honest Q, if you are a working mom, do you feel superior to SAHM moms? It's just something I have always wondered.[/quote] In some ways. In other ways, SAHM are superior. The SAHMs I know do more cooking, more crafts, more organized activities. And that's all great. But they also seem a lot more buffeted by whether things are going well or so-so at home. They seem more vulnerable emotionally. They're definitely taking more antidepressants. I appreciate the anchor outside my home, and I don't think my child would benefit from the hyperfocus of my being at home all the time. And yes, I'd be terrified of job loss if we only had one income. In short: hell no I wouldn't choose to stay home after this. It's got its advantages but on the whole I'm very much hoping for our old life back.[/quote]
