Are you working or a stay home mom?

I'm a stay at home mom of two kids. I stay home all day with the kids, plus do the house cleaning. I don't find it hard at all. It's easy. I don't understand how some people complain about the housework not being done when they stay home all day with the kids. It can be done. You just can't be one of those mothers who just sit on the couch all day. Anyway, my husband does do some house cleaning. He will do the dishes, even on the days he works. I do everything else though. And on the days he has off, he actually lets me sleep and rest up and then he will do a little more then just the dishes, he will sometimes vacuum for me, but I mainly do the other cleaning. I think it is more like team work, but I would never make him come home and clean when I am home all day and I could of done it when the kids are sleeping/napping or when they are at school.

I'm a stay at home mom. I do expecthe helps out with the house, after all he lives here as well. We don't split things 50/50, though I wish we did. But we're about 60/40 where I do some what more than him around the home. But he still has to help as he is part of the family and we are all expected to care for the house we live in.

Yes I am a stay at home mom and love it. My husband and I do share some chores. I do most of the cooking, and cleaning and stuff like that, but since I do work from home I expect him to keep the house clean and clean up after him and the kids while I am working. I do help him with outside chores though too. I help him with the yard, and gardening and things like that as well.

I am now a stay at home mom and I do all the chores with the exception on the yard work and taking out the trash. My boyfriend offers to do the dishes and wash the clothes but I feel like he is working why should he have to do that stuff. I was a working mother when I was married to my sons dad and I did everything with the same exceptions. He however did not offer to help me do anything even though we boh worked and I was in school. I have found that is usually how it is the woman does everything in the house even if she does work. I have been lucky enough to find the best guy in the world who works to support me, him and my son and is still willing to do household chores.

I am what you might call a working stay at home mom. I work at home, business stuff online. As far as chores go. I don't dare let my husband do chores. Don't get me wrong. It's not as if I'm old fashioned. But, he can actually clean the house better than me. Now that's crazy. Ok, now that I've actually said it outloud, that doesn't make sense....why the heck don't I let him clean the house. He's always offering! I'm kind of compulsive so I like to clean the house myself. But, I don't mind if he takes out the trash.

Even though I am home every day with my son I still expect my husband to do some of the chores. After all...running after a 2 year old all time can be pretty stressful and I think it is just like a full time job! I take on most of the responsibility for chores, but he still needs to do his part. And the best thing he can do is occupy our son for 30 minutes and let me take a breather!

I am working mom and I still expect my huband to help me in work , we actually divide the work and do it and my husband helps me a lot in work....My husband also works..Most of the work he do for my baby she is just 6 months old haha..

I am a stay at home working mom. I work from home so I do all the thing a mom does around the house and I do data entry and every thing else I can get my hands on.

I am a working mom. Our housework is shared. For example, if I cook, then he will wash the dishes. It's not fair for one part to do all the housework. Besides, even if one has to work and the other stays at home. It's still better for the one who has to work outside help to do some housework.

I am a stay at home. I have a three month old son so I expect my husband to help me out even if it is just watching him so that I can get some of the chores done around the house. The only chore that he is expected to do is to keep the grass cut (which has to be done at least once a week here if not more) and to take the trash out to the road every thurs night.

I am stay at home mom right at the moment, but when i was working i still did all the chores. I exspect him to do something that doesnt mean that it will get done. I had to do everything from the laundry to mow the grass i will give him that this year we dont have riding mower he has helped with the mowing, but before i did it all. all he ever really did was go to work and watch the kids from time to time or when i was at work.

When both of us are working, we share the household chores. As I am a homemaker right now, he will help if I ask him to; usually I will ask him to wash his own dishes after he had his snack.

I am a stay at home mom that works. I do telecommunication work for a company from my dining room. Before I became disabled, I was a real estate agent who fortunately was able to connect with a RE company that let me basically work from home, via fax, phone & computer. My kids use to love going on showings and open houses with me. As long as they had games in the car, they were fine while I was out prospecting or doing inspections. Now they are older (13&14) and they respect my job and know when I am on the phone with a client they need to be quiet. Our housework? Well, when it gets done (LOL) it gets done by me.
