[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the poster who said "work is just for money"...where did you get this viewpoint?

If you mother had been a a scientist or oncologist or your father had been a therapist or human rights lawyer...you might not feel this way.

Many people devote their work lives to making the world a better place. That is a great source of pride and inspiration for their children.

Sort of sad that you don't get that. [/quote]

Well, I’m a working mom who takes pride in her career (lawyer in policy work). However, I had a SAHM growing up and I know without a doubt that I found her work in the home to be incredibly valuable to me and my siblings. I’m proud of her.

Sad that you don’t get that or respect it. Especially as a fellow mother.[/quote]

There is literally nothing in the posts you quoted that says anything whatsoever about not respecting SAHMs. Those PPs said that work can be for things other than money, that kids can be proud of their parents and their jobs, and it is sad not to understand that. That's all.

Your immediate jump to personally insulting the posters says a lot about you, though. [/quote]
