[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are men who want this but they might not be attractive to you in other ways. Men are generally turned off by laziness. It’s a lot to take on the sole breadwinner role in this economy. [/quote] Being a stay at home mom is not lazy. It’s a tough job, tougher than a 9-5 in many ways. [/quote] Not really. Especially after the kids are school-aged. And the reality is a lot of these women who want to be SAHMs and say they'll return to work ... don't. [/quote] I work part time, but I had such the opposite experience. I thought work was harder than being home when the kids were little. Now work is pretty easy. I’ve been doing the same thing for nearly 20 years, and there is rarely a problem that I haven’t seen before. Most things I have literally dealt with hundreds or thousands of times. My kids, on the other hand, are constantly changing. Parenting a teenager is completely different than parenting a toddler. It’s hard to believe they are even the same person. In addition, my parents are getting older, so instead of being able to help me, they need my help. Anyway, I do NOT feel like being a parent of older kids is somehow easier than doing the same job you have been doing your entire adult life. That’s crazy. [/quote]
