To think that working mums are the devil's spawn?

[Proudnscary]

oh my eyes............and then i posted. and i don't know why. and it wasnt even valid or good. i just needed to say something. and now i will keep going back. and proud warned me....but i wouldnt listen.......

THESE THREADS ARE STUPID, CHILDISH AND RETROGRESSIVE

SO NER

What does retrogressive mean?

This is a subversive, protest thread man!

I like this thread - in a bit, please can I bang on about how much tax I pay and how it doesn't equate to buying 2 cakes at a PTA Fayre, for no real reason?

im staying well clear from the other 1 lol 2 much of a headache and eye strain

Oh god I am the worst type of mother - SAHM, but I dont bake and hate sportsday

shame on you floo lol

I hate to be a pedant, catgirl, but you already did!

Just stuck my head in the other thread - the usual bullshit. Yawn. Still, it's keeping various folk out of trouble this evening.

I really can't get my head around why people seem to care so much about what other people do with their lives though. Perhaps I should start insisting everyone else should do the same job as me, because it's obviously the only way to go. Sod that there would be no food in the shops and my bins wouldn't be collected. Because I AM RIGHT DAMMIT and everyone must BE JUST LIKE ME!

now where is the jane asher cake mix...ahh behind the gin, righto

See, thats the thing about MN, all these opinions floating around. Kindly confine yourself to thinking about what to make DH for supper in future OP. Satire has no place in your lexicon. I only clicked on this thread because I thought you had miss-spelled 'devilled prawns' and thought I would be able to both increase my recipe repertoire and correct your grammar.

This thread has made me laugh. ALOT.

Could I add, and it may not be relevant or half as funny, that I am pregnant with child numero uno, I am UNMARRIED (Living in SIN, no less) and am
planning to be have the best of BOTH world's because I work in a school and therefore will drop said child in orphange or possibly CM (I just don't know yet, so SUE me) during termtime and play at staying at home during my (eversoeverso) long hols! How Jolly! And I guess I'm kind of scrounging too, cos tax payers pay my wages! Bwahahahahaaaaaaaaaa

As you were.

Saltyair - you sound absolutely unfit - tssk

:o catgirl... Ha!

salty you obviously dislike children with your insistence to work. :( won't somebody please think of the children?

saltyair

for gods sake pick a side, you can either be a greedy, grasping, child neglecting wohm or a lazy, scrounging, leech on society, sahm

you cant be dilly dallying now, being happy and making choices

That salty's child should be taken to be raised by eskimos before it's even born, imo. Bloody woman seems to think she can have it all.

Yeesssss!

Ah ha ha ha!!!!

I AM the devils' own child.

I'm really confused now. Xenai says women who stay at home are 'at the bottom of the food chain'. But I stay at home when I'm not at work and I don't even have a nanny. Sometimes I do 'things' with the children, and haven't ever posted on mumsnet about how much my eldest daughter is earning...so, am I a working mother, or what??

I'm so confused I spelt Xenia wrong

/thread approve

Stopped reading the 'other' thread. I am scared that if I roll my eyes any more they might fall out of my sockets.

My DS suffers in a baby farm. Terribly. The poor mite hates it so much that he has to be forcibly extracted from the sand pit at pick up time.

And I work in the public sector, as a manager, so I am clearly not only neglecting my child, but neglecting him in order to sit on my arse all day doing nothing. Oh, and I have a gold plated pension, of course. So I'm not even on benefits but I'm still managing to leech off the taxpayer.

Did he tend to promise payments when hell freezes over, Orm? Or tell your mum her chances are akin to those of felines in said same netherworld domain?

Irrelevant aside... My screwy phone tried to change 'felines' to 'delineate'. WTF? And now it changed WTF to EGG!

We should do a thread on autocorrect fails.

I like a good dilly dally.

I'm going to have to go and look at the other thread I think...just for research purposes....

slatyair

please dont go to the dark side

I just get shot with shit wherever I go. I have the audacity to go out to work after the morning school run, leaving my child's other parents to do the teatime run. Even worse, I work from home half the week, and can flex my hours about to accommodate school plays, sickness and paying the car insurance.
This is obviously showing DD a piss poor role model of how a real woman should be. She's going to grow up thinking she can have a say in how her working life is.
