[quote=Anonymous]I've been a Sahm since my oldest was born almost 4 years ago. I did not like my job pre kids and was happy to leave it when I did. However, being a Sahm can definitely be tedious drudgery and isolating. I like it better than I liked my job because of course I love being able to spend more time w my kids than I would if I was working. But some days being at home cleaning, cooking, running errands, even the routine childcare stuff is so mind numbingly boring that I daydream about working again. And I don't relate that well to most other SAHPs that I meet/we don't get out enough/I don't do the mommy and me classes. Anyway, I think there are aspects of any job I wouldn't like and overall, being w my kids beats working in an office job I disliked hands down. So I don't mind the tedious and lonely aspects of it so much when I consider the alternative. However, if I had enjoyed my job I know I'd feel differently.[/quote]
