Do you think women with very yound children should work outside the home -assuming that they are able to pay their bills without her income.

I think staying home and being a parent is a full time job. It is unfortunate that in today's society most mothers need to work to help pay the bills. Housewife and mother are jobs with heavy workloads! No wonder women get stressed out from working outside the home.

Yes I agree that if the money is not needed and they can make ends meet that it is better for one to stay home with the kids but I think it should be who ever makes less money and who has the better temperment, be that the mother or the father. If the mother makes more money and the father can handle the kids then he should be a stay at home father. Nothing wrong with that. However I do think that doing it full time can get frustrating and one does need to work out some way to get a break in there. Being with kids 24/7 can get on the nerves and if the stay at home parent doesn't get a break periodically it can make it rough on them.
