[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haha, my favorite part is these threads is how many people love to find a way to drop in a word about their "7 figure income." So tacky. If you are earning that much, none of these concerns mentioned should be concerns at all. [/quote] +1 I can't relate to whatever advice comes from these posters other than feeling worse about my situation. Thanks for nothing :-([/quote] + 1 The answer to any stress on the home front is to throw money at it. Sorry I don't have any extra money to throw after paying my mortgage and childcare bills and necessities like food and water! And I don't think that makes me unique either. MOST of America struggles to get by. MOST Americans don't have $400 for an emergency. We do so we're not that bad off but I can't outsource my laundry and errands and whatever else. So stop telling me to do that FFS![/quote] This is about OLDER childrrn. Not infants. Iyes I have a housekeeper/nanny. She comes at 1pm, do a ALL the bullshit things like laundry, groceries, errands, and meal prep. She also is home when the kids get off the bus and gets them a snack and makes sure they start their homework. THIS COSTS LESS THAN DAYCARE. This is not a wealthy person "thing". And my kids don't have to live an exhausting schedulem[/quote] What can I say rich, ignorant posters annoy me.[/quote] Hopefully the budget is big enough for some much needed therapy. We all make our own choices in life. If you aren't happy with yours. You need to make changes not blame others for your unhappiness.[/quote] You have GOT to be kidding me. I say, I feel stretched too thin between work and home, such that I can understand why the OP's friends might want to SAH, posters recommend outsourcing all home chores and hiring a daily housekeeper :roll: And when I call them out on being severely out of touch with the middle class with this advice (I.e. The majority), you say I need therapy?[/quote]
