[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the only relevant point is that when SAHMs are interviewing to reenter the workforce, they need to be careful about how they address their time at home, especially if they are interviewing with WOHMs that could potentially find the response offensive. What's wrong with saying "I was a stay at home mom." That's much more neutral than "I stayed home to raise my children (implying that if you didn't stay at home, you didn't raise them)?"[/quote] This! I'm not sure why people are reading so much into 'I stayed home to raise my children' though. I WOH and have kids and didn't pick up on the perceived slight. Regardless, I like your solution- "I was a stay at home mom." That, plus make sure you keep skills current.[/quote]
