What kind of mom are you

I am a working mom. A teacher so I do get some months to be a stay at home mom. I do feel that the working moms have it a bit easier. I miss the adult interaction the most during the summer months, especially when my husband goes away for a week or so at a time for his summer job.

Hello I hope you get another babysitting job soon. For now I am a stay home mom, I take care of my husband and son. and while they are in the school and job, I am here in mylot reading interesting discussions and trying to answer as much as I can.

I am a working mom. I wish I could just stay home and take care of my son but we need money to pay the bills and for other expenses. My work office is not that far from where we live right now so still I have enough time to take care and play with my baby every day.

I was a working mom for the most part of 7 years. While I liked that I could get out of the house for a while, there were times I wished I didn't have. Right now, I'm a stay at home mom with my 3 kids. Sometimes I wished I was still working, just to get out, but there are times I like to stay home because then I get to be home with my kids. It's very nice sometimes.

I think I can describe myself as working at home mom. I devoted to take care my child and our business plus earning thru online.

I am a mother, who every day just being at home. I take care of children, and homes. I do not work, because I have to take care of the child. I really want to work, but housework, have been very consuming, my time.

I'm a stay at home mom and now grandmom. My daughter and grand daughters still live at home and I babysit the youngest one, and hopefully soon another little boy. When my kids were small my husband was an over the road truck driver. He's still a truck driver and works quite a few hours but he's now a local driver and is home most nights and for all of the weekend.

i work outside the house part time and work from home part time. i am lucky that i can do one of the jobs from home :-)

I'm not a mom, but i know my mom.. haha :D SHe's a stay home mom as well, a full time housewife with too much time on her hands, not knowing what to do.. lol :D She can be considered to be lucky, blessed but in fact she's lonely. She used to baby sit to pass time, to earn some cash too. Also into singing sessions and dancing lesson. BUt as she gets older, physical problems starts to surface and thus she's not as active like before

I'm a working mum, i've worked part time since well before i had my son. I'm also basically still single, as my partner does not live near me. So i do everything for my son, even when i was with his father it was me do everything. I'm also a bit stricter at times, i feel it wont hurt my son to learn a few manners that a lot of kids don't have nowa days.

at first when i read the title, i thought about it as a question on my traits as a mom. i am a working mom of two. my children are grown-ups already - 21 and 19. it is a difficult situation as you have to juggle your time earning money and doing house chores during the weekends. when the kids were younger, it was even more difficult because young children demand more attention. i am a survivor, yehey!

I am a stay at home mom who is currently working at writing a novel. So far I haven't had a lot of time to get too far into it, but I am getting somewhere. I too used to watch kids in my spare time but for one reason or another, I stopped watching the children. Now I am trying to concentrate on fixing up my house because I know that next year I will be going back to work. Both of my children will be in school for the full day by then, and since my husband and family are planning a trip, I thought that it would be nice to get some income saved before we go. I also want to work because the thought of sitting in my house all day while the kids are away and my husband is working, is just to quiet and lonely. I would much rather be out there doing something worthwhile.

I use to work but I just resigned and now working part time only. I love to work but not with full time job. I want to earn while attending my kids also so, being a part time worker is better for a mother like me.

Hello, I think I am a ok mom. My children are now 22 and 19. They still have issues from time to time like now both are want money from me. They always seem to hit at the same time not knowing the other one is asking... I am doing my best I know college life is not easy for them and both work. So I am thankful for that. You are very lucky to be stay at home mom. Was not given that at the time. Wish all best of luck with your children and husband. Sincerely Unique16

I am a single mom that works a full time job 40-50 hours, a 2nd job - 11 hours, and online work. I will do whatever it takes to keep my kids in a house, in a good school, with enough to eat. It's a good thing I am a workaholic!

I'm a part time working stay at home mom, although it's mostly just stay at home coz I can barely spend time now to do anything else. Most of the business ventures that I did when I was still pregnant are not being stopped or put on-hold. Most of my 'job' now is in the internet such as mylot and blogging. I do want to have my own source of income but my baby is my top priority right now -- she is my world -- and I do love spending time with her and she loves spending time with me too! I know that her laugh and happiness are the only rewards or so-called "payments" that I get from being a 99.9% full time mom but for me it's worth more than money. It's priceless! Don't worry, I'm sure that you're not being ignored by the kids' parents that you babysat before. Perhaps they're just busy with other things. Sometimes we do miss the kids that we babysat and spent time with coz it feels like they're also our own children. Just like our maid. We just had her just 5 days ago and she said she misses the baby that she babysat before so much that she cries every now and then when she remembers her. It's actually the daughter of her cousin's niece. Well at least she gets to visit her every now and then because they're just our neighbors. But she still misses her and even cries when she sees her. Let alone the baby calls her "mama" and treats her like her own mother.

I am a full time office worker and a part time online writer but I do take care of my one and only child when I am at home. I see to it that we get to be together every free time that I have. She is a 10 year old girl so she needs supervision but aside from that she is a very independent child. I allow her friends to play at our house rather than roam the streets to play it is safer this way. Sometimes I do wonder how I can manage to juggle the roles that I play in life since at the same time I do once a week supervision for Sunday School teachers. It's a matter of proper time management and setting each task by arranging them by levels of importance and if it needs to be done ASAP.

I used to work before my marriage but now I am a stay at home mom and also have to look after my family and our farm. Nice topic indeed.

and mother and I think we all should have the necessary time to datsata whether its working or not. also I think the other is that all children feel when they are loved and cared for by their mothers and then just when they are repulsed by the mother to allow it to rest. as you say there are mothers caring for children but also those who ignore them. Yet a mother can not permanently registered office at home but can not pay attention to their children. I am currently unemployed I have an interview tomorrow, but my children go to child and up to 5 hours there. but after taking them I play with them and do what they want. I think mothers should be at any moment. Have a nice day!

i am a stay at home mom too. my baby is just one year old,she needs to be taken care by someone. her grandmother is busy and have no time to take care of her,so i have to stay at home and doing nothing except looking after her.in my opinion, it is tried of looking after a naughty baby. how do you feel about your baby?
