career mom or stay-at-home mom?

You are not neglecting your children, you are providing them with the best life in which you can. I am a sahm, but it was not really by choice. It was not what I intended to do, it just kind of happened to me. I think that working moms have it much harder than sahm's do, you do the same thing I do every day, yet you have to run your errands on your one hour lunch break, you are at work all day and do not get that break or you time while your kids nap, and do not give me that working is you time, it is not it is your bosses time. I applaud you for what you are doing and in no way is it going to harm your children. I tried working last year, due to the travel requried for the job I elected to resign after six months. I felt I was at the airport more than I was home and well I was. You are an amazing mom.

Well I've said if I got pregnant young I would try and be a stay at home mom working online only for a while. My ultimate goal is to start my own spa business and get into real estate. That would be to help my financial and a family when I have one. If I have my own business I would be busy but I would also be able to make my own work schedules. Moms are soo important in anyones lives so I would always do my best to spend more time with my children whenever I have some lol.

Based on condition now, I think I have to choose career mom because of today high expenses of cost of living. That's why I have a high respect for a working mother who at the same time mannaged to divided tehir time to take care of their children. Its not easy and it requires a lot of self sacrifice. Mother needs to be creative and tough as they need to do so many things at once, and I beleive if doing it the right way, your children will understand your condition and they too will feel proud to ahve you as their mom

if i have not discovered that i can earn money online, i would have wanted to be a career woman at this very moment, i need the money badly and i hiring a nanny would be ok for me right now even if i will miss my kids. but since i am now able to earn online even though its not that big, i am happy to become a stay at home mom... i can look after my kids, not worrying too much, since i am the one taking care of them. i can discipline them too. they are very important to me, but if i need to sacrifice like work and not stay at home all the time i would do it and make them understand why.

Each situation is very different. I am a SAHM for several reasons. One I cannot earn enough out of the home to provide the daycare needed for three kids as my husbands schedule doesn't give leeway for me to work an opposite shift ( he is on call 24/7 and leaves quite often). That is now. At first I stayed home because as some one who taught in a high end day school (fancy for daycare that teaches & prepares for prep school type of place where kids are reading at 3)and I hated seeing parents who had no control over their kids because they just didn't know what they wanted or needed due to the fact they where not with them enough. Also I felt uncomfortable when parents would make jokes about how their kids sounded like me or said something like I would. I wanted my kids to be mine not raised by someone else. Now of coarse there are diffrent levels of working moms so I am not saying you are this way by any means (I don't know you). There are times that i financially would love to be at work so we could have a bigger house or nicer car and maybe a vacation here or there, but when it comes down to it for us this is the way that it should be. Yes I have given up new clothes when ever i want them and other things but I also get to see every first, teach them (I home school now as well), play with them and just get to cuddle when other moms are stuck in an office. For me all the stuff I can buy is not worth those moments.
