[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, OP, seems you haven’t been clear on which group you would like to avoid being part of or  perceived to be part of by some other group (?). Can you clarify?

As a parent who has been SAH/WFH/WOH, my advice is to stop assuming all SAHs/WFHs/WOHs are all the same and stop caring what others think of you just because you are one of the above.[/quote]

OP here.  Let me be clearer:  I do not want anyone to think I am a nanny-hating or daycare-hating SAHM because I SAH.  I also do not want to get lectured by WOHMs about not thinking of my future or depending on my husband.

OP, say you’re at the playground talking to a WOHM and a SAHM. The SAHM does not have a trust fund and only has a BA in art history. What is your plan in this situation to show the WOHM you’re not “one of the crazies”?[/quote]

:shock:

You are totally bizarre. There is literally nothing in OPs post that could lead to a scenario like this.

Do you live in an imaginary world? Can you even read?

Can you read?????? Her post is about how she makes it clear to working moms that she’s not one of the crazy SAHM’s! Her plan right now seems to be to declare she has a trust fund and a degree in early childhood education. I’m wondering how that plays out in real life social situations given that most other SAHM’s don’t have those things. [/quote]

NO, HER POST IS NOT ABOUT THAT AT ALL!!!

The trust fund and degree mentions are in place to fend off the WOHM crazies!!! How can you not see that?! It’s clear and OP stated it. [/quote]
