[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know of a few mothers of young children who work outside of the home not because the family needs the income, but because they feel that by leaving the house and thus going to "work," they are actually getting a break. A break from the chaos of a house full of young kids. Ironic, but true.[/quote] ridiculous. why don't they just volunteer? I call BS. 99% work b/c they need the money (though humble brag PP was amusing thinking that policy decisions really 'change lives', how cute, maybe she went from intern and married a staffer and this is her first 'real' job). your mommy workers have another story than needing a break. for the record, this thread reminds me of a friend with personality disorder and his attitude to work. if this is causing OP serious grief, perhaps a therapist would help gain perspective. [/quote] No I disagree with the above. I work part time because I found staying at home to be boring and lonely. I tried mom groups and could never really connect with anyone so I pretty much spent the day staring at my baby, cleaning, watching TV all day and begging DH to come have lunch with me lol. As for OP you need to find a job you enjoy. Whether it's being a stay at home mom or working for a company, if you don't like it you won't be happy. Perhaps you do need a shorter commute, having great co-workers and a great boss also helps a lot.[/quote]
