[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG...  SAHM are so incredibly sad. You do realize that no matter how much you bitch and moan, some women will continue to SAHM and their husbands will support them?  Right?  [/quote]

I don't know, I'm pretty darn happy and I feel so lucky that we can afford for me to stay at home. Most of my working friends wish they could stay home to raise their kids.  And BTW, I don't clean, we have a person to do that.  But I LOVE cooking fancy meals and having time to seriously train.  I also love that I can spread all the week/weekend chores throughout the week.  For example, I do all the laundry, grocery shopping, back to school shopping, pickup drycleaning, etc, etc. and some weekend meals during the week.  When the  weekend comes, we can do anything we want as a family without having to worry about chores.   The whole family goes to plays, museums, games, without any hurry or worry.  My husband loves coming home and just hanging out with the kids, really spending time with them.  Then, when they go to bed, we have nothing to do but hang out, drink a glass of wine and relax.

So you're staying home to raise your kids, or to "seriously train" and read recipes?

If what you describe were my life, I'd be bored to tears.[/quote]

NP here.  I missed the part where someone was asking you to switch lives with PP.  How awkward!  I would be bored to tears switching lives with most people I know, so that must be very strange for you.  In fact, I was bored to tears with practicing law, so now I SAH and enjoy my life.  If you are happier taking a different path, I think that's fantastic too.  But whenever anyone on either side of an argument sounds as bitter as you do, it strongly suggests that her feelings on the issue are not quite as simple as she portrays them to be.[/quote]
