Re: C&P from Thrid Tri
Tofu, going back to what you said about being a SAHM, versus working not being equal, I completely agree that they're not equal but have differeing opinion as to why.
Personally, I think it is VERY dependent on your situation because for me being a working mom has been much easier than SAHM. Other than the separation/guilt factor I've found it very rewarding to be a working mom. I'm not the housewife type and staying at home full-time proved to be incredibly draining/exhausting to me.
My husband helps out TONS at home and with Chlo?, I'd say he easily does 65% of the household duties. This is because I have my Dutch class 2 evenings a week and have to study the other evenings, but the point is, I get to come home from working knowing that I'll have a partner who will be helping me do all of the laundry/grocery shopping/cooking/cleaning/etc. I know I'm fortunate but my husband and I agree that we're equals and that while we're both working we share the duties 100%.
This doesn't mean, however, that I let him take charge and do everything though. This is mostly because I am sort of neurotic about certain things and want them done a certain way (like the organization of Chlo?'s closet). But this is besides the point....
