[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So true, PP. I'm sure that MANY SAHM have lives that are not enviable in any way. They are poor, uneducated, lacking resources etc. There are also many who lead lovely, safe, safe, secure lives.

Many FT workers hate their job, feel guilt about their kids, feel dumped on by the husband, frantic and hectic. Others have the money to hire household staff and keep the house moving in a way that they love.

I don't go around telling anyone that they should "FEEL LUCKY" as I have absolutely no idea what is going on in their lives.

Exactly.

I also think it is rather ridiculous to make a blanket statement about whether being a SAHM is harder than being a WOHM or vise versa. There are SO many variables that need to be factored in to something like that! The ages & personalities of the kids, whether or not there are any special needs/medical issues &, if so, what those are,  the resources available to the moms that make either SAH or WOH easier, what type of job the WOHM has, what kind of job their spouses (assuming they both have one one) have, how hands-on their spousesare when it comes to parenting, the temperment, strengths, & weaknesses of the moms in question, etc, etc. I'm also guessing that if you compared the "average" SAHM of young kids to the the "average" WOHM of young kids to find out whose day is harder, the answer would probably vary from day to day![/quote]
