[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 2703533, member: 1"] I was a "stay at home mom" for our daughter, but to be honest I got kind of bored. At the same time I asked if I could "help" my dad (for no pay) as a property manager for a couple of rental properties he had. I also took classes to learn about the internet and websites. It was the 90's and the internet was new. When my daughter was old enough to go to school I volunteered to be room mom every year, until she got into high school. I also volunteered for other stuff like serving food to kids in the lunch program. I have total respect for stay at home moms. It's a demanding job. I'm aware that my choices may be considered weird by some, but that's what I chose to do. I do realize that Tony had a good job with UPS but we also stayed on budget and kept our expenses down. That is why we had the option of me being a stay at home mom. My point is that everyone is different and judging a man's job based upon if his wife does anything other than be a stay at home mom is very strange. At least to me... Some moms may need to work because they want to, or for what ever reason. It's not always about money. Sometimes they may choose to volunteer. Sometimes they may choose to go to school. Every choice is valid. [/QUOTE]
