It sound so nice. "I want to work from home so that i can stay at home with my kids". But is that really functional? I mean, does it really work like that. t seems impossible, just while i am witing this my 3year old som has already called me 15 times!! it's iompossible to get time to do anything without being interrupped every two seconds.
So you what do you think, is it possible? I'm not so sure i must say.. :)

I have three kids myself and I would love to be able to work from home instead of working outside of the home. Fortunately for me, all three of mine are in school, so them bothering me through the day is not a big problem for me. My only problem would be finding the right work from home job that would replace my current income.

I'm a stay at home mom. I have a 17 month old and 15 year old. So I could stay home with her I started watching another child and I try to make money on here. If you want to just sit down and do it without any interruptions.. NO WAY.. But you figure out how to get it done inbetween "mommy". I did the same thing with my oldest child. I wish you the best.

I find when you have little kids it really is difficult to get things done, they are very demanding at those ages and also we kind of have to keep a very close eye on them. When my little ones were young I too wanted to work from home so I could stay home with my kids. I found the easiest way to do this was to take in other peoples children. That way my children had someone to play with as well and that also makes it a little easier. Good luck.

yes, you have to keep an eye on them aswell, and you have other things like cleaning the house, doing the laundry etc etc.. it's not only the kids. i don't think i would like to tae care of someone elses kids, I like kids and all but I'm not a "playlady"if you know what I mean :)but of course the kids would have eachother. thanks!

I do my computer time while my son is taking his naps. We also live on minimum extras while we are paying bills down so that it's possible to stay home. It's tough, but if you are committed to it it can be done.
