Should a mother work or be a stay home mom?

It's the 21st century!!! Mothers should not stay at home but have careers of their own. At times like this mothers need to help their husbands with financial matters. Although being a full- time mom also has its benefits, still they should go after the welfare of the whole family. We don't spens years in school just to end up doing household chores. Moms find fulfillment in having a job of their own.

being a stay at home mom is a very hard job. There is no doubt about it. But when you are a working women with kids it is a real tough job to create a balance between your job and family, still i believe that a mother should work as it provides her confidence that she is capable of bringing up her kids in this materialistic world

I think it really depends on the situation and the woman. I would like to be a stay at home mom because there are so many things that stay at home moms do in one day that are amazing. They handle so much and get so little.

I am pretty much a stay at home mom. I work two Saturdays a month at the base barber shop. Obviously in two days I don't bring in nearly what my husband does in a month. But the money is never an issue. We have a family together. The money is shared. Most of it goes to pay for things that we all share or things for our son anyway. I do think staying home with my son is the best job I've ever had. It's nice to be able to watch him learn all the new things he learns every day. I like it that I am the one teaching him things and I get to control what he is exposed to. The only thing I ever feel guilty about is that sometimes I think I should do more around the house since I am here all day. But because of a medical condition I have, it's really not smart on my part to do certain chores until I've had all the children I want and can get the surgery done. My husband is very understanding, though, and helps out anytime he is needed. After all, we are a team.

I would love to stay at home and be a mom to my daughter, but I need to help my husband in working so we can provide my daughter better life. I believe that almost every mom would prefer staying at home and taking care of their children but got to work to provide for their family.

I don't think that being a stay home mom is a job. A job has a boss, a pay check, a salary, vacation time, etc. A stay home mom doesn't have those things. It is most definately WORK, but not a job. Parents should decide together if one of them will stay home, whether it be the mother or the father or no one. I would like to be a stay at home mom and work part time, but I coudln't just stay home all day. I think i'd go crazy. I need to be working, to be productive and to be out in society and the work force. Within the next 2 years I plan to quit my job and work part time and stay home with my daughter the rest of the time. Within 3 years of that I plan to be working full time again, as a teacher. By then my daughter will be in school so we'll have a similar schedule. I like working, I like contributing to my household and I like having a job. I couldn't just give that up.

I am a stay-at-home mom of three. I have to say that I do feel a little guilty staying at home and not bringing any income. Yes, it is hard work. The laundy is never ending, neither are the dishes that stack up as soon as you wash them so on.

To be a full time mom to your kids is the noblest job there is, in my opinion. It entails a lot of sacrifice and hard work. But the times are different nowadays. If a woman can both work and be a mom, it is better. I'd prefer to be both if the time comes. It's so much refreshing to be able to depend on your own and achieve personal goals.

for a new born baby ,mother is every thing so upto certian age of children mother should be a stay at home mom and even after that care taken by mom is every for a child , every word told to him or her by the mother shows a lot of impact on the child like,what to do , what not to do and how to do.for every question the child is going to face mother is the only answer so its better a mother should stay at home untill their child get to know what to do and what not to do
