[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand staying at home when the kids are still little and don't go to school. But once they are elementary school age, what do you do all day? [/quote]

I am not a SAHM, but I always think this question is so bizarre.

Do you ask people without children what they do all day after they get off work?  What do childfree people do from 5pm-11pm?  That's six hours a day.  Then they have entire days, sometimes multiple days in a row with no work at all.  Managing their household can't take up all of their time.  They aren't managing, cooking for, or cleaning up after anyone other than themselves.  So what do they even do with their time?

You are comparing women sitting at home all day while kids are in school...to, you know, people that worked 8+ hours and then have to go to the gym, do their laundry and cook dinner...and the kids’ dinner and homework.  They don’t have the luxury of working out during the day.

I WAH so I at least I make $200k and I’m still home when kids get off the bus.  I manage to do everything a SAHM does.[/quote]
