if it was up to you would you be a house wife or a working mom?

Basically, it was my dream to be a career woman. Have my own business or working in company, anything. But it's hard to me this time because I am a new house wife and still having my first baby that need more attention. And I spend last six month to find a good baby sitter for my son and still have none. I can't start my business for this reason. I want to do my business while feeling my son in a safe hand. Now I just start some simple and little thing from my laptop to start making money, such as participating in MyLot and built my online store.

I would not want to be a house wife because I think that would get boring in the end, but I would not mind having a business that I run from home. Work is important for me, so I would not want to give that up entirely, but a balance of the two is always the best thing, of course.

I would love to be a working woman.while I don't exempt myself that I may fall in love someone someday,he'll better be a strong man.I want a childless marriage.call me selfish,but I believe being childless will work for out for me.I'll be a better wife,plus I don't have the patience to raise kids.I want to make money for myself and won't depend on my husband.

I want to have my own income but I wanted to stay at home at the same time. It is possible to earn while staying at home. With these new technolgy, it is not so far to do it. You can fulfill your biggest role as a mother and housewife at the same time while earning at home. I'm still single but that is what I want if I were married today.

I think because I have young children ages, 6 yrs, 3yrs, and 9 months I would love to stay home with them. Will my husband was in the navy I stayed home with my two oldest from the time they were born until about a year ago. I went to work right before he got out the service. And then got pregnant with my youngest. I hate not being the one caring for them during the day. I still want a career though. I am finishing my schooling for Accounting right now. I know I can have a career at home with in that field. So to answer your question I want it all. I want to be home to take care of my family and have my career.

I was working all the time. I started working right after my graduation. I took two maternity breaks in between. This is my third break not maternity....but to take care of my mom-in-law. She fell sick, no one to take care. But after a couple of months I will be ready to go to work.I am also enjoying my sabbatical. I am earning online by writing articles and in forums....So I can enjoy being a housewife as well as a working mom.

I would love to stay home, But i also like making money and suporrting myself and the family. I also like buying new things and new things for the family. I mean yeah staying home all the time saves money and it sounds really fun, but at times you get bored of doing the same things all the time. I mean i do the same things all the time at work, but at least im not at home being bored so i think it makes a diffrence. If i was at home i would be cleaning and doing laundry all the time and i do that after work as it is right now. I work a full time job of 40 hours a week then come home and do things there that i don't want to do but don't want to do it on my time off on the weekends either.

I hate staying at home its been more than eight months I am at home and I feel suffocated now,I am searching for a job and hope I get it sooner as possible because I have been working and now staying at home seems a torture to me so I will prefer to be a working mother than a housewife.

When my girls were growing up I wished I could have been home for them. However, being a single parent I needed to work. Now I'm home after working 32 years and I really miss having a job at times. I'm now enjoying helping out taking care of my granddaughter however I do miss the money and the connections outside the home. So I have gotten to experience both sides and would not have changed the situation unless of course I had been married to a guy who could have provided for me and my girls.
