[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn't read all 120+ threads, but SAHM are lazy, and it's comical when they complain about being "tired." Yes, I'm awful but it's how I truly feel.[/quote]

I would say the opposite. It takes a lot of strength and courage to rely completely on a single income and to deal with babies and toddlers for months on end. This is the "lazy" choice, not the mom who palms her dc off to virtual strangers for most of their waking hours  :roll:  [/quote]

I always wondered about that.. The SAHM haters on DCUM.. Do they also hate the people who are taking care of their kids? They are "above" staying home with their children, so they find childcare for them, but do they respect the people that are doing this job? And if they do respect them, why do they deserve your respect above mothers who stay home instead of paying somebody else to take care of them while they go to work?[/quote]

PP, I have always wondered this too.  The people who have such derision for SAHMs must then feel the same deep lack of respect for their own childcare providers, right?  I hear people raving about this nanny, or that daycare, but then mocking the mother who stays home to care for her own kids.  A lot of men do this too - look down their noses at SAHMs but brag that they have an au pair or full-time nanny (who barely speaks English).  So incredibly hypocritical, but I guess the irony is lost on them.[/quote]
