I've never had really high career aspirations because I've always known that someday I'm going to have lots of babies and I want to be able to stay home (as much as possible) with them. That being said, now that I am 4 months pregnant and the reality of staying at home is in my future, I'm not sure at this point that that's what I want to do all day, every day. Financially, we could make it work, but it would be tough. Socially and emotionally, I think that I need to work a few days a week, so that's what I'm going to try to do (I think I may change my tune once that precious creature hits the universe!). All that being said, I have a true respect for women who stay home with their children. It IS a job. Raising another human being to be a respectful, successful human being is a job, and it should be respected and not looked down upon.ALinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04092696108967191780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1166974987475507519.post-61428745339707108132010-05-12T11:16:47.012-04:002010-05-12T11:16:47.012-04:00A-freakin-men sister.

Just stay at home and have babies... I'm sorry is there something in my teeth? thought not. It's annnoying. Why can't women want to stay home? It's not like I'm a anti-feminist or anything.... weird.erin.patricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03342638177773803787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1166974987475507519.post-7129817165181610852010-05-11T11:06:09.770-04:002010-05-11T11:06:09.770-04:00If it were financially possible for us, I would qu...If it were financially possible for us, I would quit and stay with my kids and love every minute of it. Not because I'm meek or timid, but because I know all too well those years fly by and I want to soak up every second I can. Sadly I have to work outside the home. But I can dream!cbs111https://www.blogger.com/profile/01076484446666532311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1166974987475507519.post-71742564614257978402010-05-11T10:35:23.568-04:002010-05-11T10:35:23.568-04:00I think some people have that stigma that SAHM are...I think some people have that stigma that SAHM are weaker because their husbands are the sole source of income but if I had the chance, hell if I had some kids, I would love to be a SAHM. There are so many more options and outlets now for SAHM's than back in the old days where they were stuck in the house.LWLHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13975262231105253072noreply@blogger.com
