i still cant help being annoyed by the mother... afterall, being parents, we understand sometimes, its our anger that made us do extreme things.. not because of any cause and effect thingy...


its also her fault that she didnt pay attention to his son's unkempt hairstyle in the first place... i really pity the teacher!!

i also pity the teacher.

Now that you bring up this topic I am curious to know from many SAHM here. Do you really think that we need to treat our hubby exceptional \"nice\" in return for letting us be a SAHM ?


For me, I never think of it this way. Of cos, when my hubby asked me to be SAHM I feel being loved and blessed and no doubt I love him even more (as compared to before marriage). This is a mutual feeling.

By loving him more, I will want to cook more of his fave food and let him come back to a happy family after a tiring day.

I don't see it as him 'letting' me be a SAHM. In some ways, it's easier to work outside the home and outsource to others; being a SAHM means that I feel obliged to take on a lot of duties because we can't afford outside help or it just seems silly to get outside help when I'm at home all day anyway. We made a joint decision based on family circumstances and needs, and we both have made some sacrifices as well gained by the decision. Of course I do my best to make the home a happy place, manage the housework, take care of the kids etc, but cooking and housework are not my strong points and my family has to put up with simple fare and slapdash housekeeping because that is the best I can do.

i also feel its easier to work outside... haha i'm a newbie sahm & have only 1 baby, but i can say that i've never felt so tired in my life. my hubby also has to deal with a messier home & one dish meals now.

newbie here! newbie-ish mom & newbie sahm too.
