Is the SAHM the new status symbol?
| Tue, 09-23-2003 - 10:36pm |
In the 70's and 80's women fought to get into the workforce (the whole Ms. magazine generation)...and then the tide turned in the late 1990's when more women started to stay home by choice. Now, it seems like being a SAHM is a status symbol....and superior to being a working mom.

While I'm trying to do that, I thought I'd ask again whether you've come up with any way to explain how it is that what you do is societally meaningful OTHER than that it contributes to the GNP. (OT - is that even technically correct considering law is essentially a service industry?)
Do you see how angry this makes those of us who work for a living? Should make your hard working DH see red.

Oh, by the way, what is the name of your business? I know some people who'd be *very* interested . . .
