[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]My opinion is that most of the SAHMs either don't have the skills it takes to balance work and home and therefore you stay home (too overwhelmed) or you did not have jobs that made enough money to make it worth working. None of these apply to me. Another smaller category of SAHMs I've met had careers they liked and made decent money, but felt the social pressures of needing to SAH. Several have confided in me that they wish they had kept working now. Once all of the kids get in school f/t they are bored and need more but it's hard to find a job right now when you've been out of the workforce for so many years. [/quote] Arrogance.[/quote] It's not arrogance. It's my personal observation in my current neighborhood in NVA and my circle of family and friends. I have met very, very few SAHMs who had viable careers before having kids or could handle the balance of a 2 parent working household. My opinon would be different if the SAHMs in my neighborhood were different, but they aren't. [/quote]
