Hi,Not sure where else to post this, but it seems appropriate.I am a stay-at-home-dad. My wife makes more money than I can, so she goes to work and I stay home with our lovely 13 month old girl. It's awesome; I do the dishes, laundry, sweep, mop, cook, and do minor yardwork when wife gets home. I love it because I get to be with my daughter and not stress about "work". I make meals for a few people a couple days out of the week and deliver them, too, so there's some extra money.Thing is, my in-laws make me feel bad for not "being a man with a job". My wife and I are 100% okay with this lifestyle. It's hard to feel like I'm adequate when the people around us make me feel like I just sit around and watch TV. I know I don't just do that, but they don't understand.So, any other SAHD out there ever dealt with this? Any words of wisdom? Mostly I don't give a damn about what other people think but it's difficult when the words come from people I respect and care about.Thank you. via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2qiOst3
