"given we know absolutely nothing about this woman I fail to see how we can comment. Is this an attempt to open a discussion on women who choose to stay home? "
I think it is  |

Ok. I think that if a family is lucky enough to be able to have one parent stay at home with the children and that is what they want to do it's great.
I also think that too many people are ready to brand a stay at home parent as lazy. |

Ha my ex used to wonder this.
I spent 2 weeks actually do fuck all and he soon noticed how much I actually did at home doing "nothing" all day.
Laundry doesn't do itself, beds don't get manically made, hoover doesn't work alone and thats just a pinch of what needs doing after you have made sure the kids are sorted and ok. |

when my son was younger, and i was still married, we both worked and used child minders and hardly ever saw our boy. now i am on my own, i have had to give up work to become a full time carer (for my son) i see him all day every day, 24/7, 365 days a year and I wouldn't have it any other way...and yes, i go on facebook and i do the housework plus i do a uni course because that is what keeps me sane  |

why on earth would they laugh and take the piss about it? If that is their life and they're enjoying it what's the problem? |

There is none. I love the fact how they admit that they have it easy and laugh. It's a great quality, they know they are lucky. It's nice to see people enjoying their lives  |

I see, I just wondered why you thought they were taking the piss and out of who. |

one of my favorite lines from my now ex was when my son was about 22 months old and my twin girls were a month old..he walked in the door after work and looked around and said "what the fuck have you been doing all day?" |

It always makes me smile when you read from stay at home mums there's this to do and that to do and how it fills their days. Well heres a news flash working mums have it all to do, as well as going to work.
If you choose to stay at home fair enough but remember working mums have 2 full time jobs one at work and one at home |

"when our children were small one of us was at home all the time with them, I used to have various evening or weekend jobs to facilitate this."
This was me. I chose to stay at home with kids daytime and had part time job in the evening. no Facebook back then either. busy with kids, housework etc. not saying this lady doesn't do that either |
