Re: Stay at home insult or valid point?

It is a very hard job. I have done both. I won't try to get into which one is harder because I think it is a apple and orange comparison.

I will say that when I stayed home and the kids were little there was never was a clock out button, that job never ended.

Now my kids are older and independent, all except one. I still do everything I did while I was at home with a job to boot. However and this pertains to me only, I am not speaking for anyone else. My job gives me a bit of relief. I like getting out everyday and having adult interaction. Granted I have also surrounded myself by 1700 teenagers everyday but, I love it.

I also realize I have to comfort of having a husband, that is the majority bread winner and backup at home. I don't have it all on my shoulders, which can make things 1000X more stressful. I did it myself after my divorce so I know what it is like.

It just bothers me see a SAHP being dismissed or made to feel like they are lazy and what they do isn't important. Or a working parent treated like they are uninvolved and don't care about family.
