So it is reasonal for woman to devote herself to family. But with the development of era and advance with times, according to abilities, interests, development, woman is divided into three types: family style, carrer style and pleasure style. Although modern woman puts more importance on love, love is no longer her entire life. Few women are willing to become a full-time wife. In fact, for most women, if they married and gave birth a baby, sometimes they have to give up the career and become a full-time wife and mom, even if they don't want to give up job themselves, the companies will not give them such an opportunity. Should women give up their careers for the partners? Is it fair for women?

We have always decided that it would be financially easier on us if I stayed home and went to work after the kid go to school. We have 2 more years before my youngest goes to school. My husband is always saying he is tired of the only one making money, that it must be nice to stay home and watch tv all day. I have a 12 year old that is involved in everything under the sun, a 5 year old with epilipsy, adhd, and pos/nos autism, and a 3 year old. I never have time to sit unless it's between the hours of 10pm and 3am. How should take his anger towards me staying home it is really getting me down? Any suggestions would be great. I also help take care of children to help make ends meet it just isin't consistent enough for him and when I do take care of kids he is upset that there are kids here all day.

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 05:59:16 GMT cutepink_13 http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1938076.aspx I'm experiencing a strange stage in my life right now when I'm being just a wife and a mother as i dropped from work cause my working hours were not suitable for me to provide the required care for my baby. I feel really strange, don't get me wrong it's not like i have a lot of free time but still, I feel a lot is missing in my life. it's like I'm losing my sense of importance, my sense of personal character, I'm losing what is making me better than others. Also the lack of my personal money is making me sad, awkward, i can't get what i need and i feel strange asking for stuff from my husband. this is all making me nervous and frustrated.

Thu, 02 Jul 2009 00:56:19 GMT tlb0822 http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2006244.aspx I will have to say being a mother was something I have always wanted. Maybe a little sooner than it happened would have been nice, but timing is everything. Now for the first time in my life I am a stay-at-home Mom due to the high cost of daycare and the thought of someone else raising my daughter does not sit well with me. It is an adjustment, I won't say it is not. Along with being a Mom I also have tried to find a way to stay home and make a part-time income in between chasing a toddler. How do you stay-at-home Moms do it?? The balance of raising your children and working from home. Comments and suggestions PLEASE!!

Thanks![em]happy[/em][em]happy[/em] Tue, 21 Oct 2008 17:06:57 GMT cream97 http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1790349.aspx The reason why I'm asking is that my husband wants me to go back to working full-time, starting yesterday. Our finances are tight, but we are managing, and we have scaled down a few things, not enough though because my husband is reluctant to let some things go. So his solution is for me to work full-time to bring in extra income. I am currently working part time (on call) during the holidays and my schedule varies week to week. Some weeks I work 10-12 hours, other weeks up to 25 hours. I like it this way because I can still take care of my son when he finishes school, I can volunteer and participate in school activities and afterschool as well. He loves the fact that I'm involved with him and his school. Once I start working full-time, I feel I'm not going to have a lot of time for him, and I'm sure my 6yr old son is going to resent it too. I'm going to have to look for afterschool care either SACC which costs $276 a month or pay a trusting babysitter to take care of him. Not only that, because my husband travels a lot, which starts up again late January, it's going to be even harder as I'll be responsible for everything that happens while he's away. For background info, I was working full-time when he was born right up to 4 1/2 years then we moved from Samoa to USA. I was able to take him with me to work up to 5-6 months and then family took care of him after that. When we arrived in the US, no family, new to the area etc., we decided it was best for our son if I stayed home, and I was fine with that, infact it was the best decision I ever made. Now I'm at the other end of the scale and don't know what to do. What would you do if you were in my situation? Appreciate all comments, thanks. Thu, 13 Nov 2008 12:25:12 GMT maddysmommy
