[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we were engaged, I told stbDH that I would never ever ever be a SAHP. ever. Life has a way of happening that messes up ones plans. We ended up with two children that needed more intensive parenting for much longer than NT children. In order to have a life where we both spent more time with them, one of us needed to be at home. I have been a SAHP since. I was definitely a more natural WOHP and it took a very long time to acclimate to the cadence of being a SAHP. We now have two relatively independent adult children who have finally blossomed and are contributing members of society (well one is there and one is nearly there)- something that was much harder to achieve for both. [/quote] You know, you don't need to justify your decision to stay home by saying your kids were special needs. Any woman's choice is valid if it's what works for her. When women continually put that qualifier on their time out of the workforce, it smacks me as so misogynistic.[/quote]
