Re: Ok I'm ****** ... Email I received from [email protected]

These are the points that were insulting to me.
The need for mothers to do this is not just to add another earning member to the family.
I work because I have to earn more money to support my family.
The modern woman realizes that identity is of the utmost importance.
The mere fact that I work is not what gives me my identity. I have an identity no matter if I work or stay at home.
They feel that the time has come for them to take their roles and responsibilities more seriously.
So is this writer saying that because someone chooses to stay home they aren't taking their role seriously. This sentence irks me the most and I'm not even a SAHM.
Mothers are not really feeling guilty about leaving their kids at home because mothers understand that they are working for their kids as well.
Have you read the post this week?
The modern mother is not trying to strike a balance between work and home anymore.
I don't know about others, but I try everyday to strike a balance between work and home and it seems like I fail everyday.
This pretty much sums up how I felt about what I read.

It sounds like it was written by an old man.

Did someone get PAID to write that? B/c it's SO poorly written, I'm actually embarassed for that author -
Nothing to be 'offended' by IMO - sounds to me like the person can't choose a side, can't convey his/her sarcasm vs. true feelings, and has no sense of correct grammar !!

Re: Ok I'm ****** ... Email I received from [email protected]
It angered me because SAHMS are ignored... again.
I rolled my eyes because its implying that adults and children are now peers because of the actions of working mothers.
Its just stupid.

I found it condescending, except for this part.

Moms are no longer yelling at their kids for incomplete homeworks and unclean rooms.
That part, I found amusing. The author is obviously not my neighbor
