[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][size=9] [/size][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow people are rude. I work part time. There is SO f’in much to do all day every day I don’t understand these people. I do laundry, dishes, organize, clean up, cook, drive kids places, pick em up, play, homework, more laundry, watch sports they do, coordinate appointments, pick up prescriptions, coordinate activities, coordinate paying help, school crap, friend stuff, laundry, walk the dog, go to the store, go to the hardware store, have things done like gutters, vent cleaning and on and on and on it goes. How TF would there not be enough to do every day?! [/quote]
Everything you listed is done by working parents too. I think that’s why OP and others run into so much judgement.[/quote]
Well, you missed the part where I work. So, judgment abounds indeed.[/quote]
I didn’t miss it. You provided a long list of things that people can do while at home that are done by all parents/adults. [/quote]

They’re really not, though. A lot of people don’t drive their kids to multiple activities or several different schools because they can’t or choose not to and people have all different ideas about what it means to maintain a household. That’s fine, but it’s silly to pretend we’re all doing the same. People that work outside the home have to make compromises because there’s only so many hours in the day. But the idea that they can’t imagine how to fill those hours is asinine.[/quote]
