[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people are overestimating how easy it is to find a sitter for a weekday lunch.  If the mom stays home, I’d say she and child are a package deal until the child starts preschool and the mom can meet for coffee.  [b]Most SAHMs don’t want to pay a sitter to meet a friend for lunch. [/b] If mom works, obviously the child is in daycare or has another caregiver.  If lunch is on the weekend, then mom goes solo while dad watches the child.[/quote]
That's your choice then. My choice is to spend time with you when you actually GAF about spending time with me. So, kind of goes both ways. [/quote]

Meh.  Would you demand a friend use annual leave to meet you for lunch?  A SAHM’s job is to care for her child during the work day.  If you are rigid enough to demand a SAHM’s undivided attention during a midweek lunch and are unavailable on evenings or weekends (when the father could watch the child), then yeah, the friendship is over.

Oh, so you don't eat lunch during the workday? That's funny. I do. And sometimes I do it with friends. [/quote]

Of course I do, but I do it while watching my children.[/quote]

Be honest, how often are your working, child free “friends” inviting you out to lunch? You seem to have nothing in common with people who aren’t exactly like you so it’s odd that you keep piping up about something that would never be an issue for you.[/quote]
