Just wondering is it me or we get no respect?People look down at me and feel like i don't contribute to the relationship,my needs are different that that of a working mom.I just don't know how to explain it.The way people treat me is different.I used to work.It seems that i mattered more as a working mother.People think thinks like well she stays home whats the problem?Or you have the time you don't do anything you stay at home!Or the illusion that this Isn't  a full time job that is harder than that of a working mother.Come on.Its hard.My husband got a dose of reality when i was working and he had to stay at home for 2 months it liked to have killed him.He respects me know.He will admit that he thought she has the time or why didn't you get it done your here and doing nothing all day.He understands.I wish i could make everyone that thinks its "easy",or that we do "nothing" stay at home and do "nothing for just a wk or 2.I can guarantee that there mind would change.And change pretty quick.So what do you think of this?

       What brought this on is i have figured out what the problem with the Sgt is.He thinks this is my job and that whats one more kid after all i stay at home so what is the problem i don't have a real job!!My husband agrees that this makes sense in the way he talks down to me like I'm the little woman and this is my place.I couldn't possibly have any brains or feelings.I'm just a (WOMAN_MOTHER)!He is a chauvinistic pig.(sorry finally said it-i was trying to give him the benefit but this morning clinched it for me.tell later)OOH i hate that more than anything to be talked down to on that barefoot and pregnant syndrome..aahhhggg(Angie)

  So have you experienced any discrimination?Has anyone treated you differently?
