[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you WOH you have to be at work otherwise you are fired, other people are relying on you to do your job.  You still have to maintain the household.  You contribute to society by paying tax.

If you SAH if you don't feel like vacuuming one day you can chill out, watch netflix and do it the next day.  Nobody cares.  Getting your nails done, making sure your hair roots are touched up and meeting friends for coffee are hardly contributing to society.  Making sure your husband is fed in the morning helps nobody but your immediate family.

I am not jealous of SAHM's.  Each to their own.  But it's not a job, it's a lifestyle choice.  Own it don't try to make it into something it's not, that's what annoys everyone else.[/quote]

Netflix and nails is the modern soap operas and bon bons.

Seriously, there are countless benefits to having a sahp. A critical one is that someone is there to care for sick kids, etc so that the parent who works doesn't miss work. As a sahm, I have stepped up to provide care for my woh friends' kids and neighbor's kids on snow days and half days, enabling them to not miss work. [/quote]
I do the same. Also, carpooling for activities. You bitchy working moms don’t mind us being home then, do you?[/quote]
