Stay-at-home Mom

I start work from 8-9 years at summers.From 12-16 I worked part time jobs.The money was welcome but the real reason i worked was the feeling of independent.From age 17 I worked full time job.I did many jobs,at the end at age of 22 I open my own job.I'm tailoress.I worked 12 hour at the day.At 25 I be mother.They told be to let my son at nursery .I didn't want it.So i keep my son all the day with me at my work.I and the other girls that they work for me we played and take care him all the day.After 2 years i get very tired.So I must choose between the work or being full time mum at home.I knew I couldn't stop work.Not for the money so much but because I knew me very well.It wasn't any way that I can feel good without work and you can't be a good mother or wife if you don't feel good with yourself.I was too independent .I have very good husband but it was too hard for me suddenly after all those years to wait money from my husband even if I knew he gonna give me without need to ask.I loved my work also.So as I use to say if you want you can find ways .......I discuss with my husband and we move to another home with an extra room.I start work at this place by myself anymore.With this way I still work but also I'm at home to take care my son,my husband and my home but also I work even more little now but so much that I don't loose the feeling that I'm independent. As always God heard my prays and show to me the right way for everything.

i totally agree with you. i think staying at home is a full time job and is also a gift from God to you and your kids. i dont think any amount of money is worth leaving my kids for someone else to get to see grow up.

I love being a stay at home mom. I also run a daycare so I work a full time job too, but at least I am here for my children. I think just running a household and taking care of your own children is a full time job in itself! Unfortunately, most families require two incomes to pay the expenses.

I am a stay at home mom. I have also started my own in-home daycare. It allows me to spend all day with my kids while also caring for other children that need a place to call home away from home while their parents work.

i would love stay at home with my 3 boys{2 of of them are twins}and i have find a home business that i make money and also i save on my every day need too, cause i can buy my household cleaners,laundry items,vitamins and much more...and i save money doing it!!!! they are all nutral i would never try going back to the out world to get a job, cause i miss so much of my teins life..cause i was also travel and working about 18 hours a day!!!!!

If we could afford it and my future husband would want that, I wouldn't mind. But since I'm a single mom, I have no other choice but to finish college so that I can someday be a working mom to provide for me and my family.
