[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m always amused by the molehills of make work SAHMs try to conjure up to justify never having to work again.[/quote] My guess is that most mothers who SAH do so for a short period. After a job loss or a family move, they take a year or two to spend with the children before going back into the workforce. Or they take off work from maternity leave until their last child goes to preschool or K. Or they work through the early years with daycares or nannies, and stop later, to be more available for their teens. Or they go back to work as empty nesters. There are many reasons that people go back to paid employment after spending time away. I find this whole thread to be strange and limiting. Scheduling out the next few decades of your own life is either a privilege, or boring/dull, or both.[/quote]
