[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am absolutely shocked by the SAHM hating posts. "Lazy", "living off another person's dime," "insufferable"? My spouse and I will make decisions based on our families' needs and you will make yours. We will all work hard and do the best we can. Some of us will teach our children to treat others with kindness and respect. The haters will teach hate. I hope my kids don't cross paths with yours [/quote] Do you not see the language directed towards WOHMs, not to mention at childcare providers?[/quote] Really??????? No, I don't see it. (Not pp)[/quote] Just from this page: [i] the mom who palms her dc off to virtual strangers for most of their waking hours[/i][/quote] Let's include the whole quote you just pulled that from so we aren't taking these words out of context. Don't be lazy, pp.[/quote] Sorry, the rest talked about how bad it is to leave your kids with a person who doesn't speak English well. You know, hardworking women providing for their families. Really reflects well on SAHMs, that poster.[/quote] Nope, sorry - you're twisting that post to suit your own bias. The post was asking why so many WOH parents seem to speak glowingly of their childcare providers yet dismissively of SAH parents. Even when the childcare provider might not speak English well (or at all), they are still seen as more desirable for their children than simply having a parent take care of them. We're still waiting for an answer, by the way. And that observation has nothing to do with racism, though you can certainly try and spin it that way. [/quote] This is not at all complicated and I'm not quite sure why you're having so much trouble seeing it. Stay at home mothers are requiring someone else to provide financially for them and their loved ones. Childcare providers are not. They're earning a living and contributing, using their expertise. That's the difference. Why can you not seem to comprehend that? And if you truly believe the previous post a comment about English speaker does not racist, but I don't know what to tell you. I would much much rather have a loving non-native English speaker watching my children than some spoiled bratty woman who wants to be at Starbucks all day.[/quote] Not the pp you're responding to, but wow.. You are a piece of work. So much anger and hatred.[/quote] NP- how is having a rational debate anger and hatred? So many people jump to that if someone has an opinion different than their own version of cupcakes and rainbows. :roll: [/quote]
