I agree that you should be proud of whatever role that you have chosen to pursue in life. I loved working as a teacher but hated being away from my daughter for 10-12 hours a day. So I decided to start my own business as a web designer so that I could stay home. It was also cheaper for us to do this. However, I love being a wife but I hate housework. I love cooking but I hate cleaning the kitchen. I never clean the bathroom but I do clean the living room and our bedroom. I don't think that makes me less of a wife. I think what gets women up in arms is when they are told that if they are working outside of the home or don't enjoy housework then they are not doing their wifely duties.

YEAH!!! You go girl!!! I also enjoy staying at home and taking care of my husband. I will say he does help a lot in the house. I am also tired of the double standard, if you stay home and if not then you are abandon your kids. I am so glad someone spoke up! Thank you! Hugs!!!

We should all be proud of the things we do and the people who judge and criticize like they have (by blowing something they didnt even comprehend right) just shows the insecurities they themselves have. I'm proud to WANT to clean or so on and so on Jenna’s last blog post..I'm Going to Do It!

I think we all have to do what is right for our family! If you are fine with your responsibilities and he is fine with his, it is noone else business, IMO! I do think purchases over a certain amount require a family decision unless you have separate accounts or your own mad money you use!!!

Ya know, I have to agree, but I have my own reasons as well. When I was working I was constantly cursing those women that fought to get us in the workplace way back when. I HATED all the pressure to work, be a fab mom, a loving wife and a kick ass homemaker. It was way too much for me. It just didn't fit my personality. When I started staying home I got a lot of grief from working moms I know and it was hard. It shouldn't be like that. Andrea’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday

You know, its not evena bout being a stay at home mom, its about just being proud that you can say i LIKE being a mom, i LIKE being a wife (if you are those things) without being looked at like you have 2 heads for not being something ELSE.

I work from home, very very hard, but im a mom before i work. Most days.

you know?

I always wanted to be a SAHM. My mom stayed home, as did both of my grandma’s, and so on down the line.

In high school as everyone was going off to college people were so excited about what they were going to major in. I had such a hard time deciding because I knew that I wanted to be a mom. I did graduate from college, and then I went back later on for more schooling. But I’m proud to say that I am a SAHM, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Thanks for this post! I think it is good for moms to not feel guilty for ANY path they choose! It is wonderful to be proud to be a mommy! Being a mom is THE most important job anyone will EVER be given and it is so important to take that seriously Felicia’s last blog post..Korbie All-in-one Baby Bag GIVEAWAY and 1/2 off COUPON CODE!
