yeah maybe because they got stocked in the house most of the time. they tend to get more attention.. my mom use to stay at home before.. but i do appreciate all the things she've done for us.

I am a stay-at-home-mom and I'm not a drama queen. I work very hard to keep the house clean, take care of the kids, run errands, and etc... I don't always feel appreciated but I still am happy doing it! I had to leave town on a family emergency one weekend and hubby found out how hard it really is. That was funny! House was completely chaotic and he just couldn't wait for me to get home! LOL

I can't answer that really I was a working Mum I worked Part time till the Kids where older and then I would come home spend my time with the Kids and do the cleaning and your Everyday thing
When they where old enough I worked full time but still come home and spent time with them and kept House my Ex Husband was lazy and did nothing
As for stay at home Mums yes it is still hard work but they should be able to manage

I am actually a stay at home mom / work at home mom. I work at night, after my daughter has gone to bed. That is definitely tough, I clean the house whenever I get the chance, which is usually only 2 or 3 times a week. I have to take a quick power nap when my daughter (who is 2) naps or else I wouldn’t be able to make it through the day, since I am normally up working until about 2 or 3 in the morning. I do complain a lot, lol as you can see, but I don’t think that I am a drama queen. Although if a stay at home mom wants to be one, I think they can be lol after all they likely dealt with throughout the day!

I'm a stay-at-home mom and I'm definitely NOT a drama queen. I do think I'm unappreciated, though. I know my husband doesn't think I understand how hard he works, although I try to appreciate that he brings home the bacon, so to speak. However, I don't think he realizes I have to care for the house, I care for both kids (including most of the discipline), I do cook most of the meals, make sure we all have clean clothes, etc. I can't even rely on him to do yard work at times. So I wish he'd appreciate me more for what I do. He thinks it's a cake walk compared to what he does- fix computers and take orders from idiots (his bosses). Yeah, cuz I just love my job!!
