Subject: Stay-at-home moms

I just wanted to put my two cents in about the comments made by other listeners and JB that stay-at-home moms work harder than those who work outside the home.

I don't agree with that. I worked for two years after my first child was born and then stayed home for four years after my second and third. It is hard work staying home. I also had an in-home daycare business at the same time and would have as many as six children (including mine) on any given day.

But let me tell you, it's much easier to keep up with the house and the kids when you are home all day and all night.

I went back to work about three and half years ago. My children are 6, 8, and 10 years old. It is so hard to work all day and come home and have to put in what seems like another three or four hours of work, doing home work, reading and housework.

I'M NOT TRYING TO RAG ON STAY AT HOME MOMS. IT'S DIFFICULT BEING A PARENT. IT'S TOUGH NO MATTER WHAT, AND ALL PARENTS DESERVE HIGH PRAISE.
