Dear Amy: I’m a 25-year-old guy. I have a 16-month-old daughter that I stay home with full time. One phrase keeps coming up that I absolutely hate.
Surely the pandemic will shift this at-home parenting balance — possibly radically.
Also — speaking from personal experience — when someone condescendingly tells you that “there’s nothing wrong with” your perfectly healthy and functioning domestic situation, you can make eye contact and respond: “Hey, thanks! I was worried about what you might think.”Never forget that you have a vital and important full-time job. You are raising a person!
This high-ranking person did not apologize, or say, “I’m sorry — I seem to have something of a block regarding your name.” He said, “This isn’t personal.” And yet — as you point out, there is nothing quite so personal as someone’s name.
