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.

Could you answer my questions please?
Let me ask you - why is staying home so great for you and not DH? You say he's a workaholic, but that there's also family pressure to work. How would you feel if he came home one day and said he wanted to SAH too?

I said "have at it" meaning go for the gusto, have your life your way.
I could care less if he wanted to SAH. I have no issues w/men living leisure life style and I personally don't frown upon it. That would be my inlaws :o)
