[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone even ask why someone chose to work or stay home? I mean if you ask the question, then you should be prepared to hear the answer even if it feels judgy and unpleasant. The issue is that I don’t think people are asking the question before someone volunteers the explanation.[/quote] Yes, they do ask. The typical DMV question is where do you work? Where does your spouse work? It is the most common thing in our area. [b]It is how we judge and value eachother in this area[/b], sadly. [/quote] It's not a judgement, it's just making conversation, asking to understand how people spend their day. If you answer with your job, or that you are a student, or a SAHM/SAHD/SAHP/housewife/homemaker, or a NEET, then that's the answer to the question. Not a judgement, not an indictment. I want to know more about you. I don't want to attack you or offend you. [/quote]
