[quote=Anonymous]To me a mommy martyr is a woman who sacrificed her interests for sake of kids. She quit her job and tanked her career. She allowed herself to become completely financially dependent on DH. While her DH’s career is thriving, she is at home not getting paid, not getting social status, not getting 401k, not getting recognition for what she does. She chose to have 3 kids when she knew she doesn’t have resources for help or family nearby. She chose to have 3 kids when she knew she can’t afford childcare. She can’t afford to go out much because every outing will cost at least $75 in babysitter costs. This to me is a martyr. Oh, well, we all make our choices in life. We shut up and lay in beds we made.[/quote]
