[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm from Sweden and the concept of SAHM is so foreign to me. [/quote] This is surprising. Given the myths about your Nirvana state perpetuated by American media, I'm shocked people work in Sweden at all. Why? :mrgreen: [/quote] Not working is strange, no matter if you are a man or woman. I was seriously stunned when I moved here. The thought of a Swedish mother not working is indeed extremely foreign. I'd say it is as strange as an American man not working. Sure it happend, but it is seen as an oddity and generally not very respected. The same standards are applied to Swedish women. Though, I think this is changing with the influx of uneducated immigrants. Of course, swedish women are given ample maternity leave, so there's no point in staying home, ad swish children go to school at 2yrs old, funded by the state. Swedish people HAVE to work. It is expensive to live.[/quote]
