[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's hard to be 40 and starting at an entry level position.[/quote] You're right. Much harder than sitting home, not contributing your fair share. It really shouldn't be THAT hard, if you were interested in helping your family, had a career before (you have a shorter curve on learning and understanding the politics in most offices). Not to mention, you have the motivation of having an entry leveL job that won't likely be sucking all your soul and time. [/quote] I think being insensitive to the reality that you are 40 doing the jub that most 25 year Olds are working is very hard on your self esteem. You are never going to get somebody on board to working with insensitivity. Most people think they are "helping" their family by taking the burden off the husband. I am not advocating for aSAHM to stay at home after kids go to school but thinking it is not a big deal from being a lwyer to a govt secretary, for the benefits, is insensitive$ Most entry level jobs are soul sucking and long hours, it those with connections, experience, etc that have more leave and cush jobs. Men need to start taking on the household duties to show they are a team instead of acting like this is not a team effort. Get a job, it's not that hard... not a good approach.[/quote] Women need to keep their jobs even when they have infants, to force their husbands to do the housework and kid stuff. It doesn't benefit the family if one spouse gives up a good paying job because the other spouse won't do his or her share at home.[/quote] So your only way to manipulate your husband into helping you is to thrust your baby into daycare right away? Sounds like you married poorly. My husband is a great dad and husband - because I married a great man- not someone I need to mother more than I need to mother my babies. [/quote]
