[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can say “I take care of my kids full time” as that is a counterpart for “I work full time”. Children need full-time care. That is a fact. That care can be provided by a parent, nanny, daycare, elementary school, karate class, etc. Btw, “parenting” is not something that needs to happen 24/7.[/quote] How about working moms just stop getting so triggered about other women’s choices? I’m not going to twist myself into pretzels trying to find a way to describe being home with my kids that doesn’t offend you. I’m also not going the self deprecating route and saying “I’m unemployed” just to placate you. Get over yourself. [/quote] Most working moms don't want to be working as much as they do. They want to spend more time with their children, and silently resent the fact that there are other moms out there who do.[/quote] If this makes you feel better, keep thinking it. I don't know of any working moms who silently resent stay at home moms. [/quote] Well, read some of the responses in this thread! So. MUch. Resentment. That said, it’s great that you don’t feel that way. But the dozen pages of bitter comments on this thread suggest that many people disagree with you. [/quote] It's bad on both sides. Stop pretending otherwise. Don't feed into it.[/quote]
