(1,020 posts)I have friends that are Stay At Home partners. They "pull their weight", too. From my point of view, the Partner Who Works is on support, too - they are being supported in their parental responsibilities by the Stay At Home partner. To me, it's "a mutual thing".
I am saying that someone who criticizes others for getting support should look at their own support mechanism(s) first. I am not decrying *any* method of support.
It's impossible to "do it all", unless one runs a business from the home while the children are in school. Even then, one can make the argument that the parenfs are being supported in their children's education by Teachers.
"Support" can mean many things and comes from many places. The bottle blond mentioned simply focused on government support from one source, and ignored all the other types of support that exist (and, in all probability, which they enjoyed).
My apologies to any and all who may have been / are offended by any ambiguities in my previous post.
