Hello,
I need an itemized list of the duties of a stay at home parent. I am trying to see if I am missing anything from a list I made myself.
Please keep all commentary and propaganda to yourself.
I will all also gladly give out points for the best answer and all that good stuff.
I will truly appreciate it,
MJ

You did mean what do stay at home mothers not have to do right!! Ha ha. I have been a stay at home mom now for almost 3 years. It is honestly the hardest job ever, but I love it.
This is what my child's and my day consist of. 1.Wake up and say I love and good morning. Always start of the day with a kiss and hug. 2. make breakfast together depending on if it is something they can help with. 3. Turn on cartoons 4. Make lunch 5. Nap time 6. Wake up and play with her for at least a good hour so she does not think that nap time is a punishment 7. Its clean up time 8. We make daddy dinner 9. we wash dishes together (she loves that the most) 10. We sit and play together 11. Its bed time so we read the a few chapters out of her Bible then I tuck her into bed with another kiss, hug, and I love you. Most of the times it is full of surprises, but this is how my day usually goes. I hope you enjoy staying home as much as I do, and good luck.

My husband works outdoors the homestead and brings homestead the paycheck. I do the cooking, the cleansing, the laundry, the bill paying, the grocery procuring, the errands and each little thing else at homestead. If he's going to artwork all day long then he would not could desire to come back homestead and do extra artwork. an identical applies for you - in case you artwork all day you mustn't come homestead and artwork extra... surprisingly if your better half would not artwork. once you're working then he must be working too - even though if which potential bringing in some funds or engaged on cleansing the homestead. you mustn't artwork 40 or extra hours a week purely to instruct around and do chores at homestead. in case you have been the two working finished time then you definately could chop up all relatives responsibilities. If he have been working section time and you finished time then he could do extra homestead initiatives because of the fact he works much less. believe me, you ought to at last get envious if this maintains to happen. you could desire to place your foot down and say, "look, if i'm working X quantity of hours a week then you definately could prefer to be working too. i do no longer prefer to come back homestead after working all day and could desire to do each little thing around right here. in case you have been working and that i've got been staying at homestead i could run the errands, i could do the cooking and the cleansing and the laundry. once you are going to stay at homestead then you definately could desire to do those issues too." And if he tries to drag some BS like, "yet i don't be attentive to a thank you to do the laundry". then you definately instruct him and set out classes.

No where did I see anyone mention "servicing" the person who is working outside the home so that the other can be a stay at home parent. Put that on your list.
