[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 734918, member: 1550"] That makes sense, Apple. They are being environmentally conscious and loving trees! I love animals and am not quite a vegetarian but close. A person I know who is one told me she tastes death in meat! That affected me! I also remember my grandma hanging clothes with clothes pins. Not my mother though. If you could afford a dryer and the cost of electricity of a washer/dryer (and in my world people could) that's what was used. I also think working mother's make most women do the best, easiest housework they can and men too as father's help these days. We live in a fast world now with no time to fuss. Very few stay at home moms. Even I worked part time most of my mother years and that could be 20 evening hours a week....tiring. the cost of a house and raising kids isn't friendly to one income families. And there are so many single.mothers who do it all. Kudos to them. Mostly are awesome. But with no help and full time jobs I don't know if washing diapers and hanging clothes sounds too enticing on top of cooking, helping with homework, bathing, drying tears etc. AFTER a demanding day of work. Homeschool mom's don't work. [/QUOTE]
