Answer 3

I'm none of the above as i'm not married, but I would love to have the lifestyle of a housewife, stay at home mom. It would be hard being dependent on someone else financially, but if you're the one making meals, caring for children and keeping house, then you're earning your keep, I'd think! I recently asked a question very similar to this. I think, that if I were able to have this type of lifestyle, that once the kids were in school I'd find a part time job during the day, just so I'd have money that was mine, say for example if I wanted to go buy some clothes are get a new haircut, I wouldn't feel guilty about using his money to pay for it. I think it's perfectly acceptable. It's too bad that many people can't afford to do this. Today it seems that it is a requirement of a household to have 2 sources of income, with rent and mortgages so high. So much for the American dream eh?

Yes, my mother does work outside her home. She is a 4th grade teacher, full-time, with her master's degree in education. My mother worked and went to school while I was young and I was frequently cared for by relatives and friends of my parents.

My mother worked outside the home.
She was a secretary, law clerk, and computer operator
She worked full time.
She went to college for one year and dropped out.
She worked while we were little. I was responsible for getting dinner ready from the time I was 8, and then later, when I was 10 I picked up my siblings from the baby sitter's before my mom got home from work.

I chose not to work outside the home until my youngest child was in 2nd grade, and then I went back to work as an educator.

Answer 10

My mom stayed at home until we were in kindergarten then she worked at school while we were ther. When her and Dad divorced she went to a secrateries school and has been working as a secretary for the last 24 years. I am 36 y.o and my kids are 9 and 11 and I am just now full-time as a Medical Biller. I felt the need to stay at home so that my kids could learn my moral, ethics and values until they reached an age to make some important decisions and make them appropriately. I still come home and do homework with them and we have tv time and weekends are at home chill time but I still say the most important job a woman can do is motherhood. Back in the 70's it was easier for a woman to stay home bcuz of finances and more marriages that stayed together, Nowdays, our children suffer alot bcuz we are getting greedier as a nation, always wanting what our neighbors' have . I would love to stay home and have my husband work but as it is now the kids' still have a parent at home.
