[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]It's not HHI if you stay home. It's his income.[/quote] presumably she works at home. this is labor as well and has value--the idea that she has no power or right over their income because she has chosen to take on unpaid labor as an offset to what otherwise would be a joint expense (childcare and other forms of house work) is sexist and outdated. [/quote] I work at home too in addition to my full time job.[/quote] It sounds like you've made poor choices in life but you want a pat on the back for it. Are you proud of your need to slave all day and night? [/quote] I don't need to "slave," I choose to have both a career and a family. Why is that a poor choice? I'd rather work and raise kids than watch TV or have coffee with neighbors at 10 am or go to that 11 am yoga class. Are you really so threatened by my ability to be a good mother and a good employee that you think doing both enslaves me?[/quote]
