[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WOHM carry a lot of guilt about leaving their children in daycare AND the housework that they cannot ever get ahead of.  Even outsourcing a lot of work does not take away that guilt.  They are ok with their choice to work as long as they get confirmation that they made a smart choice.

Usually, seeing SAHMs and their children become poor due to divorce, husband's death, addiction, or low earning spouse etc is a confirmation that being financially self sufficient is a good choice of a concerned mother.  Also, being a WOHM and having a dual earning household results in a better house, finances to educated the kids in college, ability to help family members etc.  So most have a great sense of satisfaction when they compare themselves to a SAHM with poor education, no ability to outsource and being dependent on the mercy of a low educated man.

However, in this area where all the East Coast Liberal Elites congregate, the SAHMs do not fit that narrative. Most are well off, have lots of financial security, outsource stuff all the time, have lots of support, can afford the world, have supportive husbands, have good marriages, can give all advantages to their kids and they have an easier time running their household. They are also not isolated.

That is the reason that you will see a lot of attacks on rich, educated SAHMs on this board.  This is stemming from jealousy. An uneducated and poor SAHM is an object of pity and no one should be sparing her even one thought. [/quote]

As a former SAHM, I think this is a bunch of whiny nonsense. [/quote]

Oh please. Stop whining. It’s embarrassing.

Why should the fortunate whine? [/quote]
