[quote=Anonymous]My mom, a SAHM, judged working moms if their kids were allowed to roam around unsupervised after school hours. She did not judge working moms, mind you. Just working moms who did not hire babysitters or ensure that their kids were attended to after school. She thought it was horrible when this one working mom would let her two kids just basically hagn out at the pool all summer long, with no one really watching them at all. The mom asked me, a lifeguard, to sort of keep an eye on them and offered ot pay me a miniscule amount, and my mom was outraged at this and made me tell the mom no. The funny thing was also that this mom was a very outspoken, militant, feminiist, who had a column in the local paper, about how it was so fabulous adn easy to have kids and work too. So my mom was like, "OH HELL NO," when this mom approached me about this sort of chintzy ersatz babysitting job when my real job was supposed to be lifeguarding. [/quote]
