Guest guest Posted September 23, 2000 Report Share Posted September 23, 2000 Hi Russ I have never called anyone I know a 'homemaker'(maybe I'm too young for using that terminology?? LOL)...people either work in the home, or out of the home. I work outside the home. My husband works inside the home--hence, he is a Stay at Home Dad--Dad being the most important job.

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2000 Report Share Posted September 23, 2000 Its a good question .. but I do refer to myself as a SAHM which is a stay at home mother. I never call myself a homemaker.

California has a program called CCS that will help with things like hearing aids, but our income is a little too high for them. That's our problem: We're not rich, but we're not poor enough for anyone to think we're a worthwhile cause. ~Rhonda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
