Hey mama's can I have your attention please?!
Everyone I know tells me that being a stay at home mom is not a job, because I'm not making money while I'm home but I'm up early cleaning, changing diapers doing laundry, buying groceries with my (link card)
making breakfast/dinner us mama's don't get vacations! and when my spouse comes home from a long day of work he relaxes, BUT I'm constantly on the job (24/7) So is being a parent a job, yes or no?
@emkasting, my Mom was a stay at home Mom when I was little, me and my sister's have good/bad memories with her, I admire stay at home mom's because not only do they work their asses off, daily but also giving the children a good childhood. I'm over protective of my baby an bad thoughts run through my head whrn thinking about letting someone watch him that isn't me or his daddy..
What annoys me terribly is that my bf's mother calls stay at home moms "brownie bakers" and says they are useless and don't do anything blah blah. Her whole life has been about work and although I admire the work ethic my boy says none of his childhood memories contain good thoughts of her, only bad ones because she was always working or always yelling about always working.
YES it is a job. I want to be a stay at home mom with my baby, he's due May 14. My mom was a stay at home mom and my childhood was amazing because of HER. She worked so hard to give my sister and I everything while my dad was always out of town working to provide financially. My bf says he wants more than anything for me to be able to stay home and he said he's willing to do anything to make that happen
Heck yeah it's a job! Look up how much we'd get paid if we did get paid for it. It's like 110,000 a year. Too bad we didn't get paid for it but my girls love is enough pay ❤️
Yes. My husband knows when I'm a stay at home mom for our twins it will be my "job" he already supports me and knows when I need help he'll be there to help when he off work. It's something you really have to discuss with your so and make sure he understands. My husband and I have been talkin. About it since he decided he wanted me to be a stay at home mom
Hell yes it is!! Girl don't worry about what people are saying. You know what you have to do everyday. And if they are not feeding your kids or paying your bills them and their opinions are irrelevant! 😊
Yes it is, people always have something to say but without us they would be shit less
@greysonsmommy22, same! And I don't want to work specifically so I can make money to pay for day care, because it is SO outrageously expensive, especially for a reputable place. It just doesn't make sense that I would work enough just to pay for childcare when I would rather be my own childcare haha
