As she feels being home to raise her children is the most important thing....let me ask a few questions...
Do they have 2 cars? If so...why...you don't need a second car to raise children.
How big is her wardrobe? Don't need tons of clothes to raise children.
Can you simply plan meals a few days in advance and have your husband stop by the store on his way home to pick up the things you need to complete it?
How many TV's are in the house?
We all spend so much on things we call necessities that in reality are luxuries. If raising your children is the most important thing....and I agree it is...learn to recognize the difference between necessity and luxury.

You should save a few more $$$ and cancel your Internet connection.
I can't believe all the hate from these posters. You should direct your anger at the cause not the symptom.

I have no hate or anger towards these folks. My point is that if you make the choice to be a stay at home parent...you need to look at your entire lifestyle as it all is affected by that choice.
My mother stayed home to be with us children, we had one car, she walked to the store with us in tow over a mile away if she needed something for dinner or sent one of us as we got older. We had a single TV and she and Dad knew what we watched...after homework was done. She did not have a closet full of clothes that rivaled someone who was working. She planned meals on a weekly basis and they included what to do with leftovers.
This was the reality for most everyone for years and years. So I'm not sure what cause you are talking about. Its called reality.
I admire people willing to do this for their children in todays day and age. But to hear them complain about the "hardships" listed in the article....sry....I don't get it.

Boo Hoo join the club. How about a part time second shift job? Husband works from 8-5, spouse works from 6-12. No day care expenses. This is my and my wife's situation right now and has been the same way for 3 years. Day care was costing too much so she made the switch to 2nd shift. All these women in this article have are excuses, boo hoo have pity for us.

<quoted text> You need two cars in today's world. We have two, bought them used for under $10grand. Nothing fancy. As for TV's, toys and clothes (household stuff)(even a swingset); we got alot of them free off Freecycle. As for the hubby stopping to pick up groceries on the way home, I object. First of all, my hubby cannot get what is 'only on a list'. Our food budget would skyrocket. Secondly, you are saying mom is to never leave the home. How cruel a suggestion.
