[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good God this is a vital thread for every new mom, and new dad, to read before a family makes a decision to divide labor with one spouse as SAHP. [/quote] Once the kids are in school, you are an unemployed parent. The kids are at school. Same as once they are off to college, you are unemployed, not a sahp. If you actually have kids at home all day and you are actively parenting them, then you are a stay at home parent. [/quote] You can just be SAH. Or, don’t work out of the house. Everything doesn’t have to break down because employed and unemployed. Who cares? I’ve always worked but I’m not going out of my way to call my neighbor unemployed when she hasn’t worked for years and hasn’t looked to work.[/quote] "Unemployed" only refers to people actually seeking to join the labor force. Lots of people are busy doing things that don't earn money. That isn't "unemployed."[/quote]
