[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree- I do not think the term "farmed out" was exactly a nice choice of words[/quote]

I also thought it was a pretty negative view of working. Not every job, even in DC (gasp) requires working more or even 40 hours a week. Check out the flexible schedule thread. While I see AP's point, and I'm glad she was able to get out of the rat race and not work in a traditional way if that's what she wanted, not everyone wants that. I'm one who went back when my kids started school. It was time. It was nice to stay home, but I was almost 40 and it was long stretch of time ahead to be out of the workforce.

It is hectic some days, but life is not always about taking the easy way out. And I am NOT saying that SAHMs are taking the easy way out, by any stretch. But you can have a job and not be an overworked, fat, over-consuming American. You can be a WM and be happy and fulfilled, just as you can stay home and do the same. Not sure why I'm even posting though - as we clearly can't convince each other and everything gets overgeneralized anyway. Seriously, look around you - you will find happy and unhappy people in every circumstance. Life is what you make of it and if you are or are not happy, it's probably not as simple as staying home or working.
