Re: What counts as ‘impressive’ for a girl?
Thank you for the kind words and wishes…
I am not bashing her…stating my opinion isn’t bashing…I am not attacking her or insulting her.
Its not as cut and dry…just like I don’t know what it feels like to be pregnant…people don’t know what it feels like to raise a kid until you go through it.
I can’t imagine telling an uncomfortable pregnant woman that she’s exaggerating, complaining, asking for attention and making a big deal out of nothing. How can people say that? How can it even be assumed that every woman has the same pregnancy, marriage, home life, etc? You cannot.
My point is…women who stay home have to fight this “what do you do at home? watch dramas all day? why do you need to be recognized…this is your job”…all the time. And I think its unfair to think one doesn’t deserve to be appreciated.
In your work environment, you get appreciated all the time if you do your job well. As a manager/supervisor/director you’re told to encourage, support and nurture development and growth in your team members. So why does this formula not apply to a SAHM…because as I said…her efforts are not seen or spent in the form of direct deposit.
