Why? All this 'I'm not judging but...'

I was a SAHM for 2 years. It was very nice but I was a bit worried about my career and we were quite skint. Then I found a job. I like it but I do miss the kids. Thems the breaks, nothing is perfect.

I imagine everyone has good reasons for doing what they do. I don't care what they are. There were a lot of things I liked about being a SAHM. There are a lot of things I like about being a WOHM.

I come on AIBU for a bit of light relief and entertaining bufights not this tired old crap again!

If I actually had wine, instead of being in bed on a Friday night, I would have spat it out at Bup's comment.

Fuck off yourself. I heard your screams from here and I had to pluck several grey hairs off my chaise longue from the last time you visited.

CappyHunt · 16/03/2012 20:59

Only if you're totally smug with it. If you aren't then, no, you lose.

I read that as 'to think there is a lot of SAHM buggery on MN at the moment'

Confused Blush Grin clearly my experience of being a SAHM is different to the rest of MN Wink

Hey, I finally know why my niece and her friends say "word" a lot on facebook. Was prompted to look it up when I noticed the way bupcakes used it.
