I mean doing the dishes and occasionally watching your kids in between soaps doesnt see to be such hard work to me.
I really cant the ones who get a new suv just for popping out another baby, wow, it must be nice to earn a living by spreading your legs and mooching off someone else.

i know of 2 friends actually who are stay homes and all they do all day is shop, one even got a brand new SUV that was over 40,000. They arent even rich, he works as a welder. She mooches.
I have been to her house and it doesnt seem hard to me, the chores get done whenever she wants and no one is threatening to fire her. I always hear stay home moms whine and bith that they have no freedom or time to themsleves, well quit spreading your legs and having kids then.

Is it wrong 2 want 2 raise your kids and keep your house in order? I find being a house wife 2 b quite admirable. Maybe if more people stayed at home with there kids they wouldnt become so screwed up. I mean if you cant afford to stay at home or have other ambitions than thats fine I commend you but dont knock the stay at home mom.

You are a very foolish person. You have allowed this world to convince you that raising your own children and keeping a home running smoothly is not a valid and important way to spend your time. It is sad. You know full well that you would pay a nanny handsomely for doing the same thing a mother does and you would then pay a maid/housekeeper a good sum for keeping the house clean and tidy, buy the groceries, cook meals and keep the house running smoothly. You would pay a bundle to a personal accountant to keep the books for your household and manage the spending. To pay a nurse to care for you or a child every time there was a medical emergency or skinned knee would cost huge amount of cash. All of these valuable things that you would gladly pay a stranger to do and yet when two adults decide on a fair distribution of labor that one will earn the money while the other performs all of these services to run the home ohhh all of a sudden she is nothing but a whore and lazy mother. You are silly and you don’t even know what YOU are worth.

If you are not wanting to work then don't. So when you popped out a baby you mean to tell me your man didn't get you anything?
How can i leech off of his money when it is OUR money? I have income of my own also. I chose to stay home with my son even though he is in school now. I am old-fashioned just like how my mom and ones before lived -the man worked and the woman stayed home with the kids.
Yes i have a nice life if that is what you are wanting to know. I cook, clean, pay bills, countless amout of things everyday.
DO YOU NOT KNOW THE MEANING OF MARRIAGE IS?
I have nothing against working moms and working moms should not have nothing against me. Does my life affect you in any way? Cause i know your life dosen't interfer with mine.
Can i ask you something? Does your man not want to work for you and his family? Is that why you post this stuff on here?

Well, let's see. There is more to staying home with the kids than that. I have 3 and I give them tons of attention. We homeschool as well, so I have them ALL THE TIME. I don't shop very often, and when I do, it's for birthday gifts and things like that. I don't watch soaps at all. I couldn't tell you the last time I watched something I wanted to see on TV. I clean the ENTIRE house from top to bottom almost daily. I DON'T have an SUV, I drive a 10 year old Chevy Malibu. Our house is modest. We live a modest lifestyle so that I CAN stay home and raise OUR children, rather than letting strangers do it. I get one weekend a year away from the kids ( a weekend for the girls) and I get maybe 2 nights a month to go out by myself. That's plenty for me, and I LOVE it. I wouldn't have it any other way. And I don't mooch. I definitely earn my keep.
I should get an SUV, though, for pushing out our kids. My first was almost 12 pounds and my third was 10. :)
I WAS a working mom for 3 years, and I wanted to keep working. My husband WANTED me to stay home and raise our children. He wanted me to quit my job the day I found out I was pregnant with our first. I wouldn't do it, though. I went to college, dammit, and I was NOT going to stay home with the kids. I changed my view, though, when the daycare provider told me it was going to be $240 a week for 2 kids. Nope, I'll just stay home, thanks.

how many kids you got 1 why don't you try having a few more and see how it's like you are constitally busy gradually some of us are lazier then other about the housework and stuff myself included on some days and if I have not been doing my part in keeping the house looking guest worthy I don't expect to get anything from hubby. I personally won't leave my kids with a babysitter (family excluded) or daycare until they are about to talk with all the molest and crap that have happened with other kids in these settings I'm not taking any chances so unless I can work oposite hours of hubby will not do, and right now hubby's job is allways changing and he works about 120 hours a wk (he's in the oil field business.)

Well lets all guess you’re not a housewife with a home of kids and happy family. Just because I am, a stay home mom doesn’t mean my life is of less value. I probably have more value and happiness in my pinky that you do your whole life. Don’t sit there on your throne judging something you have no clue. There is more to it than you seem to think. Besides it is what works for many familys to have one out working while one is home, (which by the way can be a stay home dad)

Why is that when the men are on holidays and at home for a couple of weeks with the kids constantly around the feet that they can't wait to get back to work?
I took a job when my husband was out of work when my kids were only young he thought it was going to be great. 1 week in he was stressed out, the house was a disaster he abandoned the grocery shopping because it was just too hard. It went on for 3 months and it did not improve and he happily found a job. His whole outlook on staying home with the kids changed. That just about sums it up.

Wow! You are really asking to get chewed out here aren't you. Perhaps you have seem one to many episodes of "married with children" Not all stay at home moms are Like Peggie Bundy.In fact I would say that you really don't have a clue as to what is going on.While I am sure that there are some women out there who may act like that,I am willing to bet That in a few short and I must say Ignorant phrases you have maneged to insult 90% of us women who stay home and contribute to our house holds by doing the things our husbands do not have time to do while they work.Such as Cleaning cooking looking after the children,paying bills food shopping laundry and many other things that it would take to much time and space to mention.

LOL How many kids do you have? I'm guessing none.
I've been a working mom for 14 years. I was a stay-at-home mom for one year. I would NEVER go back to being a stay-at-home mom - it's MUCH harder than being a working mom. I thought I'd lose my mind!
Plus, we were bussing it while I was a stay-at-home mom. Who do I have to open my legs for to get an SUV? What neighborhood are you from? LOL

Being a stay at home mom is one of the hardest jobs I have ever had. My day starts at 2:30 in the morning...I get my husband up for work, I might lay back down until I need to get my daughter up for school or I may not. I take care of everything in the house that needs to be done. My day might end by 9:00 p.m. My husband works very hard to support me and his daughter...But in turn I work very hard to keep the household running smoothly.
