[covergrl80]

Those 10 people that voted NO are not stay at home Mom's i can asure you of that

thats one of the mothers that I was talking about - the ones that dont pay that much attention to teh needs of their kids and put themselfs as #1. THose are not women that have it hard while being stay-at-home moms

you extrapolated too much from the story
she's a quite capable mom
I note details such as how the children are seated,their dress and their over all cleanliness
as well as how they talked to me
their command of the langauge given their age
she passed well on all accounts
she's half my age

how old are the kids? Are they in school or younger? Plus, she is a single mom, I was talking more about moms with husbands to take care of on top of the kids

and if you think the "mother" needs to be there so often
than what premuim are you placing on the father's time involvement?
has he got to have a commensurate input with the mother in less time?

this could go on forever, blah blah blah. wtf.

If the husband is supportive and has a good idea of his role as a contributing father, then you have a strong family unit which still doesn't take away the fact that it's brutally hard for the person raising the kids. If the husband or wife is more like one of the kids, then single primary caregiving is probably easier and alot more accepted, sans the extra added bullshit and work.

Just wondering what your views on that are.

I know that I get tired like mentally. Hardly wait to ship the kids off to bed so I can have some quite time by myself. But I have to admit that it was way harder when I worked AND took care of the kid and husband and the house.

No it isnt. I've seen that twice on a CV and in both cases, I didnt even care to read the rest. I dont hire that kind of people.

 

[Spartacus]

my opinion is that males and females are equal

What about the Moms who have all the responsibility of a stay-at-home-mom (i.e. take care of the household, the kids, the husband cooking cleaning laundry) but who also work a full-time job?
