I AM MAD AT THIS!!!!


Do you read the Parade in your Sunday paper? I DID until now. In
the Ask Marilyn section she was asked this question;
IS BEING A FULLTIME HOMEMAKER (MALE OR FEMALE WITH OR WITHOUT
CHILDREN) A REAL JOB OR CAREER?

HERE IS MARYILYN'S ANSWER:

IN MY OPINI0N, NO. BUT YOU SOUND AS THOUGH YOU BELIEVE THAT HAVING A
JOB OR CAREER IS THE ONLY LEGITIMATE WAY TO LIVE WITH DIGNITY.
(ASSUMING YOU ARE PHYSICALLY AND MEMTALLY CAPABLE OF OUTSIDE
EMPLYMENT) THIS IS SURELY NOT THE CASE. REAL HOMEMAKERS MEANING
THOSE PEOPLE WHO WORK HARD TO PROVIDE A NURTURING SUPPORTIVE
ENVIRONMENT FOR THIER LOVED ONES PROVIDE A GREAT SERVICE TO THEIR
FAMILIES AND BY EXTENSION TO SOCIETY. ONLY YOU KNOW IF YOU'RE TRULY
VALUABLE AT HOME; IF YOU ARE, IT'S TIME TO STOP FEELING GUILTY.

So SAHM's are not working a JOB????
tsk tsk tsk.....
