[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand why WOHM mom's feel the need to vent their own frustrations by negatively stereotyping SAHMs.  I've done both.  Currently I work 30 hours/week and do all the home stuff.  But I had years at home for my own reasons.  It was lovely, my kids benefitted from it and I now have struck a new balance that works for my family.

Who gives a crap what other ppl do.  And, if you want to talk about how obnoxious SAHM's are, let me TELL YOU about the SEVERAL working moms who think everyone who doesn't work full time out of the house is "working for them" to facilitate their child's upbringing.  NEWSFLASH: I gave up my lucrative career to make life in my own family less stressful not to be at your beckon call to drive your kids to the activities you pay for but can't get them too.  SERIOUSLY, make your own choices and shut up about it.

One teammates mom called me every rainy day to ask if I could take her kid to practice (20 minutes out of my way both directions when it rains); another's kid of an entitled WOHM calls my teen all the time suggesting activities THAT I SHOULD TAKE THEM TO.  Mom of the latter asked me to pick her kid to up bring her to a party I WAS HOSTING AT MY HOUSE.

So get a grip, their are asshole SAHM's and asshole WOHM's.  Same as always, everyone is different and it's a bad idea to generalize.[/quote]

Yeah I've beem wohm, sahm and part time wohm mom and entitled nuts can be in any group. I hope you set boundaries with the wohm trying to take advantage. If someone in the family is ill or something then yes, of course if you can handle it help, but if it's out of your way and the person annoys you I hope you say NO. I had to set the limit with my neighbor who when I was sahm not only tried to make me her free helper as needed, but she also made snide comments. I set limits fast. Low and behold she had her MIL come live with them and play nanny as needed. MIL also cooks for them, babysits, etc. I hope they show her more appreciation than they show to all the SAHMs they find inferior.[/quote]
