Thank you, chrisinthesun
You're welcome! 
I'm genuinely gobsmacked that someone would rather I dragged in an unnecessary sum of money into the house than just improve the quality of life for my family all round. I daresay they wouldn't notice if I brought in a bit more money, it certainly wouldn't impact their lives. If they had to wait longer for dinner, I no longer had as much time to support them academically, they had to get used to a childminder or nanny instead (especially as DD1 is 16, she'd probably resent it hugely), and I couldn't pick them up from school anymore they'd notice.
I know right! If you asked 1000 children if they would rather have name-brand clothes, exorbitantly priced gadgets, and a trip abroad every year - (instead of Barmouth) - but they will not see their mother throughout the week until 7 at night, and she will often be spending 3 or 4 days away with her 'work' so they will have to fend for themselves, ferry themselves everywhere, cook their own meals etc... how many do you think would choose the fancy trips and expensive gadgets, and their mother not being there for them? NOT ONE. That's how many!
I think some people are very materialistic and value goods and objects over love and affection and spending time with their family. Says more about them really.

Good for your DH having an 'enormous' salary. How vulgar of you to point it out. But since you have, my DH has an 'enormous' six-figure salary too. So do I. I don't 'need' to work in that sense and neither does he, but one of needs to as we are not from wealthy families.
Parents staying at home to look after young children is a valid choice. Staying at home when they are at school and there are no other impacting issues isn't though, in my opinion. In that can you're simply a 'kept' spouse and there's no dignity in that.
Heaven forbid that some women actually want to go out to work and are capable of earning high salaries! No of course, we'd all rather sit at home playing little wife, and if we have a different opinion, obviously the only reasonable explanation is because we're jealous.
Got a bit of a bee in your bonnet about stay-at-home-mums haven't you? Getting a bit defensive there too! Did roseandflowers1 hit a raw nerve ??? 
You also seem to have a bit of a bee in your bonnet about rose saying her husband has a big salary. You are definitely peeved about that, and no amount of 'ROFL smilies' is going to change that!
And yes - you DO sound jealous, and bitter ... If you were happy with your lot in life, you would NOT be trashing other peoples life choices.
And why does it make you so angry that other women choose to be a stay-at-home-mum (even when the kids are at school?) You sound very bothered by it. Lots of bitterness and anger between the lines in your posts. Calm down. Other women being at home with their family is not affecting you, so chill the fuck out why don't cha!
@howfaralong
Horrid thing to write. Way to go to minimise the role of women. You must be so proud of yourself.
DeltaG your comments are vile and minimising.
See ^ ... Even other posters are having a go at you about your attitude. You must know your attitude stinks!!!
And I reiterate, you sound jealous and bitter.

No happy and confident woman stamps over other women's sensible choices with vile misogynistic comments like she's making. She's trying to reinforce that she is superior - which is why she made the original comment about footballers' wives, puts down SAHM, felt the need to mention the specifics of her husbands' salary, talks about "vulgarity" in a skewed concept of etiquette, and is so obsessed with "dignity".
Excellent post, and pretty much what I said!
Ignore the goading. She's not worth it!
