[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many women want to SAH. I for example can't manage pregnancy and working. [/quote]

Psst.  Hey lady.  That wasn't the question.  Several other SAHMs have chimed in to say they are happy at home.  We got it.  Enjoy.

Do you have any thoughts on the expectation by society that it be moms who step back and become SAHPs?  What do you think about dads out there who want to SAH?  [/quote]

There are zero expectations except in your head for women to step back and be SAHM's.  This is not the 20-50's and it a woman's choice.   I have no issue with a Dad wanting to be a SAHP.  My husband would have loved to but financially we couldn't make it work.  He'd be great at it.[/quote]

Oh, well, if your DH would have liked to do it, then there must be no problem in the rest of society at all!  Silly me!

Lady, get your head out of your butt. [/quote]

What, don't like to hear that some of us are in good, supportive marriages and you are not?[/quote]

Clearly you are struggling with things, what with your head up your rear end and all.  I suppose with your head stuck in the confines of your rectum, you would be expected to be limited in your thinking.  And it makes you strangely defensive and apt to jump to illogical conclusions about people you have never met.

I have a lovely, supportive husband.  I shouldn't even need to mention that, because it has absolutely no bearing on the discussion at hand. Despite that and the fact that I have a good life for which I am very thankful, I can have awareness of how things operate in society. I can acknowledge that women still get the short end of the stick, and that my individual good fortune does not negate this fact in any way.  I can recognize that the way women are treated in our society has negative impacts on their husbands and children.  It can even impact women who choose never to have children.

I'm sorry this just flies right over your head.[/quote]

You don't have a lovely supportive husband if you are posting this and something is clearly off in your marriage.[/quote]
