[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope, not saying that - I am addressing PPs who clearly could stay home, but choose not to, and whose remarks are offensive to me as a SAHM. It is not the 1950s and my decision to SAH was not made mindlessly, according to our "roles" and a man and a woman. Smart, educated, "modern", even feminist women - still, some of us feel a calling to care for our own children. A parent being home with our children was a huge priority for both DH and I and he does not feel like I've abandoned him to support us all on his own any more than I feel like I am "subscribed" to my role. [/quote] I don't know what you mean by "subscribed to my role," but your remark about minimum wage childcare workers was offensive to me. [/quote] Why offensive? I have been on both sides (WOHM and SAHM). When I WOH I made sure to choose a daycare that treated their employees well.[/quote]
