well dear i work full time as a housewife mother and grandmother.  my pay is zero but one thank you is worth it. I also work part time and make very little but it is fun money. The joy of doing this is much more than the pay

Write me back at yahoo mail.  I know tons of working moms that are still able to be good moms, meaning they can go to all their kids sports events, etc.

I know the feeling! I work full time and my husband is disabled and home 24/7. He takes care of the housework (it may not be like I do it, but it's done & clean), laundry, cooks most nights and takes care of my 15 & 13 year olds. If they need to go somewhere, he takes them. My whole family blames him for us not having everything they do. I wish they could live in his body for one day and maybe then they'd understand. It works for us but it's not mainstream so everyone else thinks he's a freeloader. Sorry, I can sympathize with you, but I can't help.

I do know a stay home mom and she sign up for some kind of mail drop off site.  What it was ,is she used her garage as a storage area.  Big companies mailed her large quantities of products and all she did was separate it and schedule ups pick ups and she made decent money.

I personally believe that it is the way women have been viewed as taking the role of caregivers since the beginning of modern history and even before that. What do you think when you think of women in general? One image that automatically comes to mind is that they have the potential of becoming mothers, as someone who is more emotionally aware of others feelings, more emotionally attached to others etc. So basically most of the times women are generally made to function that way and other times they do it because society protrays them and expects them to act a that way.

I think June is certainly the most commonly used icon to represent that type of parenting. \n\nI absolutely know that you can work and be a good mother.  Staying at home doesn't guarantee anything.

I am not, I have a 4 year old son and another on the way.  I work both for financial reasons, as well as for personal preference.  I love my job.  AND I love my children.  I don't think that having him in school during the day is having someone else raise him.  I am with him every night after 5 and every morning.  We cook supper together, we play games, we learn, we cuddle, we have a great relationship.  On top of that, even though he is now an only child, he knows how to share his toys, interact with other kids, and because of his excellent school, is HIGHLY more developed than most children his age.\n\nI do not, however, see a single thing wrong with being a stay at home mom.  My sister in law is, and I can attest that she works much harder at home all day than I do managing my office!  I hand it to all of you ladies who choose to do this.\n\nI think that the thing that we have to remember is that is it a personal choice.  Going to work does not make me a bad mother, staying at home does not make her lazy.  It is what we have both chosen for our families and both of our families and our children most importantly, are very happy with our choices.  \n\nOur sisters and mothers did not work so hard in the women's movements of the 70s and 80s for us to stand here today and say that our way is the only way.  They worked so hard to give us a CHIOCE!

It is my personal opionion and personal observation that people who separate themselves from their parents at an early age do better in the long run.  \n\nPeople who stayed home never grew up emotionally or became financially independant. Parents tend to enable kids staying kids for as long as personal.\n\nI am being honest about this knowing my kids will be ready to leave home soon enough and I will not want to see them go.

They are not nice. A woman loves to have a man help espically if she is working outside the home. Even if she is a stay at home person, she needs your help. If I were only years and years and years younger, I would snap you up. Stay as you are,

I would say its not all that good because kids start feeling very lonely. When their mom starts working she has less time for her kids and they begin to act up so they can get thier moms attention. The best thing you can d o is find a goos time to spend with them and dont ever ignore them just cause your tired.

Hell no, a woman shouldn't feel like she has to stay home.  I grew up in a household where my mother worked, and except for a small stint in prison for manslaughter, I turned out great!\nBut seriously, no, I don't think a woman needs to stay home.  Men should do their piece for child rearing.  Many times, a woman has worked for decades to get a career going, she shouldn't end it just because there's a rugrat

Saw my mom get left alone with six kids to raise on her own, while dad had 17 kids total.  She was a housewife and totally depended on her husband.  Needless to say we struggled growing up. So, I have always been independent (since I turned 18) and always will stay that way!  Of course, if I get independently wealthy, I might choose to stay home and raise some kids or just go travel!

I am a Sidetracked Home Executive (A stay at home Mom, but I like the fancy title). I am the gardener and grounds keeper (yeah I use the weed eater and the lawnmower and I love it), the day care provider, the financial consultant and accountant, the cook, the first aid provider/nurse, the housekeeper, I even do some car maintenance. Home maintenance projects such as painting, small fix ups. I also provide an extensive laundry service... hey I deliver. I put in well over 80 hours a week and the pay ain't too bad (a very happy and healthy daughter and husband, plus 2 dogs and 2 cats) Oh yeah I do the dog walking as well.

I know someone that went through the same thing.  She has (4) children and stays home. She started her own home based business.  That keeps her busy, makes excellent money and has time for her and her family.  Have a look at this website.  www.opportunity4more.com.  The couple in the picture is the lady I am speaking about.  She would be great for you to contact and speak with.  She told me that she is much better now with staying home since she started her own home based business.  She  contributes ( a lot)  to the house hold income, feels good about what she is doing, has time for her kids and she also had time to do some personal development.  She has gone through welath creation and personal development courses that she highly recommends to someone like yourself.  Let me tell you she has helped me with my business and my lifestyle.  Take a look and see.

Mostly it is the way people are brought up that gives them the idea that a woman's place is in the home.  Psychology has a lot to do with that thought.  Everyone has different backgrounds and experiences in life that make them agree or disagree with that debate.  I as a woman dont feel that this statement is necessarily true and feel that a man has the same responsibility over the home as his wife does.  But like I said it all depends on how one was brought up and what ideas they developed on the issue.  For instance, my grandfather made the kids do everything in the house and would ask them to let my grandmother rest.  My mother then developed the idea that she should be a helpful housewife, unlike her mother.  My father, seeing that my mother did everything in the house, never lifted a finger in the house.  I grew up thinking how unfair that was of my father and believe that both should clean up around the house and look after the kids as well as both have the responsibility to work and pay the debts.  Thankfully my husband feels the same way!!!  LOL  We both make a mess, we should both pick it up!  We both spend money, we both should earn it!!

No it is not just women.  I think about my wife 24/7.  I even dream about her.  She is on my mind no matter what I do.  She is a stay at home mom.  She does work part time, but for the most part she doesn't work.  Well not true, she works very hard at home taking care of our 3 children and the house.  We are so blessed that she doesn't have to work.  I think about everything she does, day in and day out.  She is my world and I tell every day.  I will even send her text messages during a meeting.  That is how much she stays on my mind.
