[quote=Anonymous]Totally agree with 14.53 pp.  Nothing happens by magic.  I'm a SAHM mom at the moment because we are on a posting and there's a number of issues precluding my being able to work.  Most of the other SAHMs I know expand the sort of things I'd usually do in between work hours to be "big deal" items that are worth planning a day around.  I've never had more spare time than I have now and I have three small children and no childcare help.   It's a matter of filling in the day rather than having a day that is full.  I think there's a lot of justification on both sides but I absolutely reject the fact that SAHMs have as much to do as WOHMs who are largely still doing all the domestic infrastructure stuff and holding down a job.  I don't negate that both are busy but I would observe that one person's busy day is another person's well planned lunch hour.  Perhaps there may be a benefit for kids in staying home with Mom but I'd have to say I notice little difference at all between the SAHM kids I see most at the moment and the day-care/nanny kids of my friends (except that the day care kids seem to be better socialized on the whole).
