: I am a stay at home mom, yes. And I have to say that I have seen my fair share of children messed up by mom having to work. My husband works full time and we have one mid-size vehicle. We don't own the latest minivan,etc. We have two children. Would we be able to get more "stuff" if I put the kids in daycare and went to work? Sure. But I will NOT sacrifice my children's well being for "stuff". I do understand there are single moms out there who do not have a choice but to work. As for the comment of taking the kids places, etc. When my kids have doctors appointments, I take him to work to use the car and then pick him up again when he gets off. Yes, it is inconvenient, but it is something I am willing to do so that I am able to stay home with my children.
Are the children in school? Do you have any education beyond high school?
