[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[b] I don’t think people are asking the question before someone volunteers the explanation.[/b][/quote] Not my experience as a sahm but maybe because it's a rare choice in my community. People do ask, especially when they look down on someone's choice and cannot comprehend why one would choose what they consider a lesser choice. They are quite insistent but I think if I gave them my reasons, they'd get more upset, there's no winning when someone had made up their mind so I try to stay vague or end the conversation. Most people (like vast majority) do not question it.[/quote]
