[quote=UCGal][quote=scaredyclassic]i feel like we are an old married couple arguing and im not even sure what we are arguing about anymore.
i concede that it would cost a lot of money to hire someone to do what you do.
i don’t concede I’d actually hire anyone to do it. id cobble together some sort of patchwork to hold shit together.
i concede you make my life much richer.
but i refuse to put a dollar value on it.
and it’s not worth X cause you say it is.[/quote]
Best summation yet.[/quote]
I’ve never claimed that it’s worth X because I say it is. There is a market for these services, and the costs are easily calculated.
There is, IN FACT, a value to the work that is done by SAHPs. You don’t get to make up the value any more than I do. The facts — actual numbers that are easily obtained — belie you’re claim that it’s not worth anything (or very little).
