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.

Do you really have a problem with a SAHM having help to clean the house? S.V.

I can also do other things. And I do!
And p ardon me, I never said you didn't do the same things as I do. But that doesn't make them less significant in my house than yours because I'm a sahm and I get to have some fluff time every day.
BTW-- I thought people went into opthalmology for "lifestyle." I'm not passing judgement on your dh but it is a field where it's possible to have a less-than-crazy work schedule.
Do you disagree with me?
