stay at home mom or dad

I think it all depends on the individual family. For us I am a stay at home mom. I feel very fortunate to be able to stay home and raise my daughter. I know there are lots of moms out there that aren't financially able to do so. Or maybe they choose to work because that's what they want. Every family is different with different needs. But for us I am perfectly happy staying at home. It is the hardest but most rewarding job I've ever had.

Well, my son is the one that stays at home and takes care of his two sons. He doesn't have a drivers license or a high school diploma so getting a job would be tough for him. His girlfriend likes to work and she has a job that she loves doing. I don't have a problem with it because it works for them. But her family thinks my son is lazy and should get a job. Maybe I am biased because he is my son and yes, I do agree that he should get his GED and drivers license because maybe someday he may want to be the one who supports the family. But for now, whatever they do is up to them.

My wife and I personally share everything : house chores, raising our son, paying the bills, etc... which makes our relationship stronger through the years. We should accept the new roles eaach of us must play in these changing times and I feel that the changes are very welcome ones.

I'm a stay at home mother. At first, it makes sense because, well, I've got the milk! It works out well for my family, I didn't finish my education so the jobs out there won't pay me enough to keep a child in daycare. My husband makes a lot of money so I can stay at home. I also have fears of other people parenting my child, like some in laws who want to spank him, so I want to stay with him. My husband would probably go insane staying at home anyways, he always likes to be on the go.
