[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to live in Arlington- I worked full time as a master's-level mental health counselor at a hospital, it wasn't the most glamorous job, but I enjoyed it.  I got pregnant with twins, our 900-something square house started feeling pretty small.  I stopped working once the twins were born and we moved out to Fairfax.  Although I had a brief stint working one day a week at my former place of employment, I am now fully SAH.  My whole life changed, but this was what worked for me.  I have never experienced any kind of negative critique from anybody around me- when I was in Arlington everyone knew my plans, and here I am in Fairfax and I feel accepted.  Some day I might return to work, but I kind of doubt it.  I think this is where I am supposed to be and I am happy.  I should add I have plenty of SAHM friends, but more working mom friends.[/quote]

You don't get backlash because everyone assumes you can't afford to go back to work and pay childcare.[/quote]
