Stay at home or work

I've been a sahm and now that my son is in 4th grade I do substitute teaching so I am home when he gets home. I think it is important to be there for your child when they are young. Eventually, I will go back full-time but now this suits me.

It is BETTER to stay at home with children because children need attention. We can see how many children are naughty because they parents do not have time to look after the children. But it is nice to have income when you stay at home. My blog is full of Freebies and you can visit: http://halfmilliondollar.blogspot.com

I can't stay in a single place :) but... i prefer the work at home too...

If I may I will tell you what I did.... I quite my job toward the end of my pregnancy and stayed home until my daughter was 11, had a boy during that time too.. Was kicking around the idea of working part time and then a housefire hit...so here I am since then working...always part time...We homeschool so that helps...So I am bringing in extra money and my kids are learning to manage time even better than before. We have become a team and so things still get done and I get adult conversation and make some of my own money. Not everyone can do this however I once saw where they figured what it takes to work! lunches, work clothes, car, fuel, maintenance, sometimes fees if you are professions etc. so all you make is about 50 cents or so per hour. So you need to figure it out. Especially if you pay for childcare!! Good luck to you!

One of the more difficult decisions for new parents to make is determining whether to return to work or stay at home with the baby. For some, the choice is made for them, as finances warrant the fast road back to work. For others, numerous factors emerge that contribute to the final decision. No matter what the outcome, families are oftentimes plagued with guilt. A surefire way to combat this useless and taxing emotion is to accept one's own choice, while supporting the varied decisions made by other parents.

WORKKKKKKKKK

do home work

i think moms should stay at home and look after their children.otherwise their children will spoil

why have them. There situations that require mom to go out of the home to work. I have raised 4 Kids and 2 grand kids. IHad to got to work to support my self and my children when my youngest was 6. They were all in school. I think that they need you home when they are older just as much as when they are younger.we some time think that just because they are able to care for them selve to a degree that they are all grown up and don't need us around as much. but they can get into as much trouble when they are older as when they are toddlers. Just different trouble.

as a single mum myself, it hard to raise your children, let alone give them what they need. i stayed home until my youngest was 3 and went back to work part time. my child got the experience of daycare, and enjoys this time with her friends. everyday i wonder if i have made the wright decision, but in the end i have to work to give my kids what they need to make it in life. this covers things like a roof over their heads, food in their tummy and clothes on their backs. the time we spend together now is special and they know this and don't mind me working for they know im doing it for them.

My ideal thing is to work FROM home but that isn't so easy. I work part time and I truely hate it. It's too hard, with 2 little kids to care for at the same time. I only am working due to money, we can't be so strapped all the time.

work and stay with the kids,both are important,try to manage ur time

I have done both. With my first we were desperate for money so I had to go back 5 months after he was born. Although he has grown up well I feel that was too soon and if I had the choice I would have gone back when he was older. With my youngest I stayed at home until she was 2 then she went to nursery part time. She is much healthier than my firstborn, although a lot more clingy. But everyone is different, there is no right or wrong. You should do what suits you and your little one the best. They are usually far more sociable when they have a working mother but not always.
