Yes, I find it very sad that many women feel they must constantly obsess over their careers and never consider staying at home being simply a wife and mother. But, you know, if it makes them happy, that's wonderful.
I just wish people wouldn't paint with a broad brush to stereotype all SAHMs at uneducated yes-women. But, truly, do we care what other people think of us? The opinions that matter most to me are mine and my husband's opinions.
Oh, I just wander everywhere but homeschooling and social threads like this tend to catch my attention.
I started a new job today and I didn't thaw anything for dinner so my hubby and I will be eating tv dinners after karate. I don't mind too much though, I'll make something really good tomorrow to make up. This job is going to be somewhat fun and pay well and look great on a resume but fulfill me? You've got to be joking.
I'm intelligent and my husband respects that - he's not going to start thinking of me as a doormat as soon as I have kids. That would be stupid. What sort of man would want his kids raised by an idiot, anyway? Well, I guess if your choices are angry feminist career woman or ditzy housewife you might have to settle but there are plenty of us level-headed women who see the world in more than black and white.
