Good point, KCM5. I'm guessing she was exaggerating regarding the 8 times. If that is indeed true, she needs to find another group of friends and acquaintances. Or move altogether. That's a rude bunch of people.
The more likely scenario was that she was using some poetic license to make her point or to generate more sympathy/outrage in the reader. Either way it's disingenuous.
The Mommy/parents wars exhaust me. We all are just trying to make our way. Whenever someone says something offensive, I should just let it roll off, but it can be hard sometimes.
Several of the comments had rude snipes at SAHMs to this effect: "Here's the thing SAHMs, I do all that you do - clean, laundry, schedule, doctor's appts etc - AND I have a full time job."
This is the classic defensive response that overlooks the truly hard part of being a stay at home parent, namely spending all day with a child. But I have to remind myself that it is probably coming from a place of hurt and hearing one to many times that they are not "raising their child" since they are in daycare. This is, of course, bullocks and not something I think at all. But many people say that, and I imagine it burns, leading some to lash out and say equally hurtful things.
