[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand that having two kids at home requires work but (1) she chose to have two kids and (2) people have been taking care of kids and cooking meals throughout history. My mother had 5 kids at home and did the cooking and cleaning. House was damn clean also.

I don't think the level of work has increased either. When I was a kid there was no meal delivery services, mircorwaves, etc. Things took a lot more work and yet somehow the moms of that era got a lot more done. [b]These days the SAHM want the husband to work then come home and start doing housework and taking care of the kids so they can get a break. [/b]

That's what the husband/partner SHOULD do.   How is this not obvious?   It should be 50/50 when the WOHP gets home.  [b]Why does one parent get a break in the evenings and the other parent is working all day?[/[/b]quote]

In reality SAHM do not work all day. I never really understood this until I took a sales job and the lead account manager who was a woman wanted to conduct pre-client meetings at coffee shops just prior to the client meetings. I had never spent much time in coffee shops prior to that and I noticed that in the morning the coffee shop was full of moms that just dropped of their kids at school sitting around complaining about everything they needed to do that day. Then late morning the crowed changed to SAHM coming into the coffee shops after their workouts and sitting around complaining about how much stuff they needed to do before the kids got out of school. Then mid-afternoon the crowed changed to SAHM sitting around waiting for kid pickup time complaining about how busy their evening was going to be with homework and cooking and how their husbands never helped them.

After I caught onto the scam I no longer buy into the 50/50 narrative.[/quote]
