[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't come across hate for SAHMs in my circle (I'm a lawyer).  It's a choice and feminism is all about choices.  I also don't get the anger over SAHMs who went to prestigious schools.  I believe education is important for the country and for voters.  I don't think it's throwing it away to go to fancy schools than decide to stay home.

That said, I am glad I am not a SAHM.  My husband had an affair and I would not want to have to be reliant on him financially.  He was one of the most loving, doting husbands and dads and everyone was shocked.  He was my best friend and we had a very active sex life.  Thus, I really feel like I need my own financial abilities.  I also wonder what happens when the kids leave the nest - off for college or whatever.  Are the dads resentful?  Are the moms bored?  I am fine with people doing the whole SAH thing, but I would be worried.  Of course, I generally am a worrier.[/quote]

You are a lawyer. So am I. I shouldn't have to answer your last questions for you. If you were home and had time on your hands, what would you do? Nothing? I highly doubt it.[/quote]
