[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To everybody saying relax it’s a joke and that she’s overreacting would be flipping their lives if a mother-in-law had said that.

I wouldn’t because she’d be right.[/quote]

I wouldn't have said what OP said, and certainly not to my MIL.  "Hey, MIL, it's so great that your son will keep going to work every day while I sit around the house with nothing to do!"  [/quote]

The neighbor's comment was not a joke.  It was an attempt to shame a woman in front of her spouse and social community.  It was misogynistic and inappropriate, and shame on those of you who think that it is ok or funny or those of you saying the OP was at fault.  Let us please not promote this false narrative that SAHMs must be personally tending to their children at all the times of every day or they are somehow "less than" and worthy of public ridicule.

When I was SAH and put my kid in part day pre-school, my mother and my MIL said "do the five day option, not the three day option."  Sorry your MIL is such a bitch and doesn't support your overall well-being.  [/quote]

Finally! That guy is a jerk. If you think it’s a joke try this one “why your baby so ugly...” haha[/quote]
