[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh look. Another whiny WOHM.

OP, you can't handle working and parenting then quit.

Oh I can handle it fine. I just can't handle listening to SAHMs who have school aged kids complain they are busy. [b]Especially when it's to get out of helping out on things like school functions or girl scout activities.[/b] [/quote]

There it is!!! You’re mad because the SAHMs aren’t providing as much free labor as you would like them to.

Guess what? [b]Nobody owes you free labor [/b]regardless of work status. Grow up OP. Read some threads about how so many people hate school functions and room parents make insane demands for class parties, don’t even get me started on the PTA...

Hahahaha free labor?? You are a free LOADER if your child participates in any school activities, field trips, lunch program, carline, after school enrichment like scouts or sports, if you never help out in any way. All of these activities require volunteers to make it happen. I think perhaps you are the one who needs to grow up for the sake of your children. Sad that your child never has your participation in these things yet benefits from them.[/quote]

SAHMs calling others freeloaders. The ultimate irony.[/quote]

This is such an interesting dynamic. Working moms denigrate SAHMs all the time, yet feel entitled to these women's unpaid labor. I wonder how these women keep a job with such terrible social skills. [/quote]

In what sense? I’ve never used a SAHM for anything. All the class volunteers in my kids classrooms work. What exactly is this labor? And are they forced to do it? *tiny violin[/quote]

The whole premise of this thread is that OP was upset SAHMs sometimes said they were busy when she asked them to volunteer for school functions. OP made it clear that she works and she was annoyed the SAHMs were not the providing the amount of volunteer work that she demanded.

That's what the whole thread is about. OP feels entitled to free labor from women who are SAHMs (It's also clear that she does not feel the same sense of entitlement to WOHMs time.)
