[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, OP, seems you haven’t been clear on which group you would like to avoid being part of or perceived to be part of by some other group (?). Can you clarify?

As a parent who has been SAH/WFH/WOH, my advice is to stop assuming all SAHs/WFHs/WOHs are all the same and stop caring what others think of you just because you are one of the above.[/quote]

OP here.  Let me be clearer:  I do not want anyone to think I am a nanny-hating or daycare-hating SAHM because I SAH.  I also do not want to get lectured by WOHMs about not thinking of my future or depending on my husband.

You don’t need to worry because this stuff doesn’t happen in real life. [/quote]

I have been a SAHM for 7 years and not one person has ever lectured me about not working.

Recently I have considered going back to work as my youngest will be starting kindergarten. After I mentioned work, two friends did express support about my going back to work but it was not a lecture.[/quote]
