Stay at Home Moms??

It was the best decision we ever made for me to stay at home with our son when we moved to USA - he was only 4. I was working when we lived in Samoa and he was taken care of by family. We never even thought to stay home because I had so much home help and babysitters it wasn't an issue then. Because we moved to a new country and had no family around us, preschool was expensive, it was the only decision we could of made at the time and I am glad that we did. I am still a homemaker and work a few hours here and there at a Dept store (when my husband is not travelling). I make a little bit online as pocket money for myself and thats it's it. I know it would help if I did work full time but with my hubby travelling every 3 weeks until next year, it's best I remain home and pick up extra part time hours until my son is a bit older. He turns 6 on Saturday.

I don't feel guilty about not making money, because money isn't important in life. Family is what is important, and when the children are older they will value the fact that their parent was home with them instead of them being at a sitter's all the time.
