[quote=Anonymous]I get way more intellectual stimulation as a SAHP because I can choose want to focus on instead of the sometimes interesting sometimes grind of the work in my previous career that left me zero time to pursue other intellectual interests. In the early years I did a lot of research on my kids various special needs (medical, nutrition and developmental); since then I have studied three languages and cycled through mastering 5-6 hobbies over the last 15 years; immersed myself in my college major again (re-read a lot and learning what's new); took courses and got positions on non-profit boards. I also took a bunch of writing courses to brush up my skills, and now I'm writing a novel.[/quote]
