[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boys need
A mom at home.
Almost zero screen time.
Male and female friends, in real life.
A good education, either at home or in a private school.
Lots of fresh air every day.

If you're not doing that, you're gonna have a bad time. Bottom line.[/quote]

I found the right wing incel. Be for real. [b]Mom at home isn't happening in this economy[/b]. Public schools have better educated teachers than private schools that require minimal education and training.

I want responses from real people who live in the real world.[/quote]

Honestly I can buy the “not in this economy” to an extent for moms who are *just* starting a family.
But for ones who have been moms for the last 10+ years…nope.
“The economy” isn’t the barrier to moms staying home.
It’s the societal myth that is perpetuating the idea that SAHMs will be bored or boring…and the expectation that a family of four needs a 4,500+ square foot home, needs to drive luxury vehicles that are kept for no more than 4 years, and needs to vacation overseas at least dr once every few years. People are living waaaaay above the standard of living that one income can afford. And they are choosing that over prioritizing the health and wellness of their kids.[/quote]

Completely agree with this. I think social media feeds exceptionally high expectations for people that just aren’t realistic. My wife and I make nearly $300k and she frequently expresses concerns that we’re low-income and I need to double or triple my salary for us to be able to survive. And this is with us maxing out our 401ks and saving a substantial amount for college for the kids, and still having money leftover for savings and a couple vacations a year.[/quote]

Sounds like she is a gold digger. [/quote]
