[quote=Anonymous]I quit being a SAHM because of this. It’s not just about reading books or having hobbies. It’s more about building something and interacting with other adults to achieve something. With kids, once you get the basics down, it’s just the same thing day after day with no end in sight. With work, there’s an actual project with a completion date that requires creativity, trial and error, and it pushes me to my limits. Also helpful I’m surrounded by people who also geek out over the things I do and show a lot of appreciation (which, let’s be honest, kids and husbands don’t). I know moms who are very happy being SAHMs and that’s great for them. But I can’t do it. [/quote]
