[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I would be a "trad wife". Older Gen X, advanced degrees, stay at home mom for the last 15 years. The [b]Great Recession ate my career field, pay scales sank through the floor, we had two little kids, and I decided to stay home[/b] with husband's urging and blessing. He makes enough to support us. I have a great life. Maybe I just don't care about money, or my ego. Our kids are teen and young adult, and are doing very well. Tradwife? It's just life, OP. People have to make a decision, and sometimes their decision isn't the same as yours. Live and let live, you know? [b]I don't understand why a woman would have kids not to spend much time with them, and claim that the best example she is setting is to show them how to make money. I'd rather show my kids something else, I guess.[/b] I remember going to grade school events during the school day and having teachers ask in a whisper if I would be willing to look at the project of the classmate whose parents weren't there. I'll never forget the grade school girl who burst into tears as I complimented her work. She said through sobs, "I want my mom". She didn't say, "My mom can't be here because she's showing me how to make money at a job." I just said I know and I'm sure she's proud of you. What else can you say. My heart broke for her. I bet her mother never knew that happened, and assumed she was being a great example.[/quote]
Funny how you didn't "spend much time with them" or "show your kids something else" until your pay declined. So you were fine being a working mom, not seeing your kids and teaching them how to make money when you actually [i]could [/i]make money? And what changed?

Quite the irony to shit on working moms when you only stopped working not a) because you wanted to spend more time with your children or b) raise them to value something other than money, but only because c) you lost a job in the recession. Youre a hypocritical POS who couldn't crack it outside the home and had to come back with your tail between your legs. But sure, tell us all how you're such an anti-corporate hippy now  :roll: [/quote]
