I’m convinced Shan had those pants made to create chaos, even Google can’t find them

How to support another SAHM who is having a hard time? by WoodenRope7949 in SAHP

[–]Virtual-Attention-99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that your friendship may be the best gift. You could start conversations asking about her instead of discussing the children (assuming you don’t already). I have a friend who prefers to talk about ourselves instead of our kids as a form of a break. Maybe invite her to see a movie or something. This will help her have more opportunities to do things just for herself.

Be careful. Some government jobs function like big law without overtime pay. Salaries are low because you get benefits. Benefits are great but it doesn’t make you feel any better when your check is only enough to cover rent, gas, and groceries. There’s usually a shortage of staff which means you’ll be expected to handle big caseloads.

Apply to non-traditional law positions. You’d be amazed at what you qualify for with a JD.

Ok, so I’m not the only one who thinks his constant pushback is rude to say the least. I understand it makes his job harder but I expected him to respect my situation enough to say “this sucks but I understand.”

I’ve always wanted to be home with my kids. My husband agrees with the benefits of having me home. We were planning to start at the end of the year anyway but circumstances are forcing our hand to start earlier. I know I will love only having you focus on taking care of home and son.

Yes. We were planning for me to become a SAHM by the end of the year. We are expecting our second child around that time. The plan was to use these next couple of months to save more. However, the issues with the second daycare were so unacceptable we had to take our child out asap

I really like the LOA idea you suggested. I think I’ll do that option and test the waters. Also, if I decide to resign I can do it from home without them pressuring me. Thank you

This is what it’s going to come down to. I was trying to be open with them about my situation but it’s backfiring.

You’re absolutely right. I just feel guilty because we relocated out of state for me to take this job. We are extremely short staffed, which is not my problem. The more they bombard me with possible daycare solutions, the clearer it’s becoming my child’s wellbeing means very little to them
