[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have never met a SAHM who cares if anyone else works or not. The number of WOHMs here, however, that invent weird narratives about SAHMs who live pitiful existences and are miserably married is truly remarkable. No one accused you of anything, but the hostile attacks on SAHMs reeks of mom guilt. [/quote]

+1. I see nastiness on both sides, but the vitriol from the working moms is on another level. Thinking sahms are worthless, don’t contribute to society, really? You have to have a deep sense of self hatred and raging jealousy to have such strong feelings about anyone else. [/quote]

Nope, sorry, but you have blinders on.  There is SO much vitriol from stay at home moms who accuse working moms of "abandoning their kids in daycares" and ask why they bothered to have kids at all.  You sound like a fool for blaming one group more than the other.  [/quote]

I have been on both sides and it’s definitely nastier from WOH, 100%. UMC circle though where you don’t get a lot of SAHMs that don’t use housekeeper or preschool, so there’s not much of the “letting other people raise your kids” narrative since most use some form of childcare themselves and see the merits of it. [/quote]

I've been on both sides as well and it's definitely nastier from the SAHMs, 100%.  So there you go.  "How could you abandon your child to go back to work?"  "I love my child way more than I love any job I've ever had." "It's so sad when people value their job over their kids." "Not a full-time parent, not raising your kids."  Just stop.  I don't care where YOU have heard it from more, just like it doesn't matter where I have heard it from more.  It is bad from both sides.  No side is better off here.  Stop acting like it is.  You sound ridiculous.[/quote]

You must know some obnoxious bitches irl because I have never heard anyone say stuff like that.

However, ON HERE, in this very thread, are posters calling sauna “worthless” and “pathetic” and “sad” people defending it.

So I would say at least on here, the working moms are outrageously bad.

Signed, part time working mom with no dog in this fight[/quote]

This thread is one of a thousand.  So one working mom got riled up here and has gone off the deep end.  But plenty of SAHMs do that ALL THE TIME on other threads.  I even thought on this one there was someone commenting about low-wage workers caring for the children of working mothers?  So even if this thread is your sample of one (which is meaningless), I'm pretty sure there are nasty SAHMs here.  So sorry, not buying your story.[/quote]
