I was reading another board about sneaking purchases past their husband's. I know I use to sneak before we started doing our finances together. I would actually come home during lunch to get the mail or unload packages. I was pitiful. Even now, I will bring things in the house and wince thinking how upset Devin would be with me.
So, have you ever hid purchases or not told your DH the whole picture of your finances? We use to horrible fights about finances. I would do the weekly budget and e-mail him it. We would discuss it and everything was fine. Then, he would tell me two days later that he was doing a marathon that cost $75.00.

Spanking is illegal in Sweden it is not illegal in Switzerland. I don't think, however, that the law in this case has very much to do with the culturally different attitudes towards children. The Swiss just tend to view the world as dog-eat-dog and focus on getting their children toughened up and agressive from an early age. The Swedish tend to view the world as working best through cooperation and mutual respect. Development children's social skills is a top priority, not only in the early years, but throughout the school years. As for passivity, I guess I never considered not using spanking to be a sign of passivity with discipline. There are plenty of ways to actively discipline without resorting to spanking.

You're kind. I consider myself EXTREMELY blessed, to have a WAH job that makes GOOD $$, and a Nana I and my DD love down the street.

Speaking from a child care provider's perspective I can honestly say that I have loved each and every one of the children that have been in my care (even the most difficult children and believe me, I've had my share over the years).

Choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color. Choosing your socks by their character makes no sense and choosing your friends by their color is unthinkable.
And, as an outsider, I'm not saying she's a pt WOHM or ft SAHM. I couldn't care less. I'm just saying the repeated jokes that followed were unwarranted. Certainly in a court of law this would never fly, right?!!
