[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, are you independent because you grow your own food and rely on a barter economy instead of a job?[/quote]

I am not independent. Few people are. But there is nothing wrong with relying on others. Things work better that way to some degree. If everyone has a role and works together you get better results than if everyone is on a high horse of delusions.

Ok she depends on her husband to do his part. He depends on her to do hers. You depend on your company to stay in business. You depend on your boss not to fire you. Everyone depends on someone. However as for financial independence...a job is the worst way to try and achieve that so there is no reason to use a job to look down on other mothers and its very laughable.[/quote]

Sigh.  If there's nothing wrong with relying on others, then why judge mothers who rely on help with child-rearing?  I LOVE my son's daycare providers and they bring things to his life that I could never provide (I didn't study elementary education, nor do I come from a diverse background - both of these are examples of things that can help nurture my child's development).  Does your husband have a job?  Do you not rely on it?  How's that home-schooling going in the forest, where you live independently?[/quote]
