If your mum was a SAHM, are you one too?

And vice versa, so if your mum worked out of the home, did you follow in her footsteps or did you become a SAHM?

She worked full-time before starting a family, was a SAHM until I was about 10, then she worked part-time and went full-time when I was about 16.

I'm childfree and have always worked full-time.

My mum was a SAHM and she told me to work and be independent. I think she regretted it..

I'm not "cut out" for being a bloody farmer, I'm not being derogative to farmers, it's not what I would choose to do !!

This is bloody brilliant! I assume you lack both the skills and experience to be a farmer. Therefore you are incapable of being a farmer.

GrinGrinYes, probably a very bad attempt at yet another explanation to a simple point and I shouldn't have tried to keep explaining myself . There are things people are capable of doing but not cut out for so choose not to, that's all I meant. But I will stop trying to explain it now.
