Introducing myself

Okay, well...my name is Valerie. I'm not a parent, although at times I feel like one (I have to take care of my sister). But I am a SAH of sorts. I'm disabled. Not to mention, I have social anxiety. I like to stay alone, most of the time. I do the domestic things. I have to pull my own weight. I do get my own paychecks. Of course, it's below the poverty line. But it's something. I think SAHMS deserve pay. More than I make. After all, I'm making money to stay home. But most stay-at-homes make no money for the work they do.

Welcome, Sandi!
You're right. Parents are not paid to parent. And wives are no paid to be spouses.
or they could be gay... like me :-) I don't have a good man but I have the BEST woman around!
