[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^also I'm probably projecting but I definitely think my MIL judges the amount of help we have. She raised six kids while working full time and I think she doesn't understand why we need so much help. [/quote]

How did she do this with no help? [/quote]

Daycare and the older kids helped the younger ones. Big Italian Catholic family. [b]I'm a SAHM with a full time nanny [/b]and she's so nice to me but I do something wonder if she rolls her eyes at me. [/quote]

Well, yeah.  So am I.  [/quote]

I have a chronic illness and a spouse that works 80 hours a week. This makes our life easier. Sorry that bothers you. [/quote]

Well, you hadn't mentioned that before.  You only said you were a SAHM with a full time nanny.  Based on this exchange, one of the side effects of your chronic illness appears to be that you have the IQ of a turnip.  [/quote]

Lol egg on your face makes you mighty defensive. [b]I have an Ivy degree and two masters [/b]and had to quit working when I ended up in the hospital for the first time. I think this is a good lesson for you in "be kind to everyone because you don't know what they're going through". Why would I divulge health information in a post about my mother in law? Also turnips are delicious so thanks. [/quote]

Of course you do. [snort]

But, to answer your question, you would provide that information because it bears directly on the point you were trying to make.  You said your MIL doesn't understand why you are a SAHM who need a full-time nanny.  The fact that you have a chronic illness bears directly on how people view your situation.

The fact that this needs to be explained to you really proves my earlier point re the turnip.  [/quote]

You know you can just say sorry, on the Internet. It's humanly possible. [/quote]

You think someone who speaks to a stranger like that has empathy enough to apologize online? Don't engage with bitter, they lash out in much uglier ways.[/quote]
