Working moms have it harder.

[Anonymous]

Mothers who work outside of the home have it harder than stay-at-home moms. In addition to working 40 hours a week or more they still have a family's laundry load, a house to clean, a household to run, children to feed and clean-up after etc.

If you agree post that you do below. If you disagree tell me what reasoning you have to support your argument.

I think a working Mom has It harder in the respect that they have To deal with the stress of People outside the home then come To deal with the family. For me i am a working stay at home Mom and Will never return To a job.

I think it's equal

I think some do, some actually do more than most SAHM do and volunteer on top of it

Honestly, this type of discussion is often silly, as it's entirely situational. A working mother with a job that isn't particularly trying, will have it easier than the SAHM with children with disabilities. The SAHM with one child will have it much easier than a working mom with a physically or mentally trying job.

I think we focus too much on trivial things.

Why is this an argument? When did life become a competition for whose life sucks the worst? lmao why would someone be proud of having a harder life? this is a stupid post - and all these wahms vs sahms who has it harder posts are equally stupid. 

aren't we all on the same team here?

I did round the clock child care. I had to in order to make ends meet in NYC and not pay out the wahzoo for child care myself.

Quoting Anonymous:

Oh boy do I agree about being a wah. I don't know you but when I say I worked from home I worked for an actual company, had a boss, schedules , meeting and deadlines

Quoting acrogodess:

I hit it's equally difficult. I've been both. I've also been a work from home mom. That was actually the hardest.

Parenting is hard period. Whether you stay home or work

[MrsCountryMama]

Dh and I both work full time and we share all household chores and parenting I think it just depends on the situation

I'm a SAHM, have been most of the past 30  years. I have had a few short term jobs over the years. When I worked I couldn't keep up with my home stuff! I was totally overwhelmed and stressed out. I don't see how some mom's can do both. I have great respect for them. Even more so if they are a single parent!

 I agree. It is a lot tougher when you are a working mom. I have been both a SAHM and a working mom and it IS harder to work and still have to be in charge of running the house because DH says he is sooooo busy and sooooo tired. Yeah,right.
