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.

Have you ever owned a buisness? if not with the attitiude you carry you may not keep loyal, dedicated, hard working, respectable employess and your buisness would fail drastically. Respect is key in successful business....no offense just one clear cut experinced business owners opinion.

My dh has never expected me to do something for him b/c im his wife, we do these things b/c we love each other dearly and we honor each other.
I would not have to worry if I hire a attractive nanny that would be the least of my worries. Our marriage just is not made that way.

I could never put on pantyhose and a suit everyday and go into a court room or stuffy office, that is why i did not pursue my career or my degree, Im simply not interested. Does this make me less worhty of your respect? not imo. I prefer to work outside with the horses giving riding lessons to children caring for the horses and animals, breeding animals, riding, jumping and running the horses preparing for horse shows...one of the most amazing moments in life is to watch a animal bring her babies into the world. Dig in the gardens, make lunch from my veggie and herb garden one great salad let e tell you. Volunteer work with under priveleaged families, aids babies, abused women, drug addicted women...who deserve every ounce of my respect and to volunteer at my childrens schools and our church.
However sinceI have joined this board i spend a lot of time here when i should be outside pursuing what makes me truly fufilled.
