Can you really say that being a stay home Mother is a career? [View all]

I was a stay at home Dad for a couple of years and I know how tough it is to take care of 3 kids, do the household chores, etc. It was fricking hard.

I kind of wish I had the money for maids, a break at the Country Club, etc--- I digress---

But--- I wouldn't consider it a working career.

Both my wife and I work and we're still raising our kids---so technically---for those who say that being a stay home parent is a career decision--- my wife and I have two careers. Home and work.

Mitt Romney put his wife front and center with regards to women's issues--- workplace equality--Pay---healthcare, etc....

How could she possibly know what goes on in the workplace if she's never been in the workplace?

She is no expert---not even close.... so her getting called out on it is perfectly fine as far as I'm concerned.

50. I'm sure she knows all about having plastic surgery, hiring nannies, telling the chef what to cook,

shopping at the finest stores, which jewelers have the most unique designs, which of their homes she likes the best, etc. Lots of experience!

This is a huge bonfire.   Dearest Sarah at her most miserable.

You could make the same complaints about a certain first lady.

My mother's husband sold his company to Cigna for almost $4 BILLION dollars last year and they still don't live like DUmmies imagine rich people live, that pilfer money away on frivolous luxuries and have live-in help.  It's comical.  If you saw how they live compared to their net worth, you'd laugh yourself silly.

DUmmies are so stupid.

SO demanding
, and life is so complicated. But no, stay at home mom is not a career because when employees are sought, it's not something that will be considered in a resume or an interview. In fact, it might even be considered a hindrance, or time lost. nt

Imaboobi is desperately envious of any woman who has a husband, children, a home, and a useful, rewarding, happy life.

She is motivated by the same emotions that sustain the entire modern democrat party: jealousy and class envy.

Considering you lazy DUmbshits would rather MURDER an unborn child than invest even a fraction of the effort required to RAISE one, yeah.  It's just like any other productive endeavor.

I'd rather work 6-12's than be a stay at home parent. I get more time off doing the former.

Rush said it best, if it's so easy having a kid, or 5, why do so many DUmbasses get abortions?

But--- I wouldn't consider it a working career.

That's because you're an idiot.

A "career" is something one devotes their life, or a significant portion thereof, to being.  A woman who devotes her full time to being a stay-at-home Mom is most definately in a career; the most difficult, important, and rewarding career that exists.  That you, and dimwits like you, view it as just a passing phase of a woman's life is a reflection of just how immoral the political left has purposely become.

.

Because third world peasant labor is a good thing.

Honestly, we shouldn't discourage the DUmbasses. Hey DUmmies, you're right. You should run with this.

DUmmie motherhood =  only having children when it's convenient for them, the rest they abort. :hammer:

The ****ers don't know the first thing about being a responsible adult much less being a responsible parent.

Of course they don't see stay at home mom as a career, they fail at it miserably as atested by their actions and words.   :mad:

This latest lib departure is very unlike the libs. Usually they have a refined discipline of staying on message. They were almost able to jiu jitsu owebuma's war on religion into a conservative war on women. But in a very uncharacteristic moment the libs sidetracked off that message to show the real authors of the war on women, the libs themselves. And this genie is going to prove difficult to stuff back into the lamp.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Yes.  And so is a dad that stays at home while the wife works.

That these buncha abortion loving mouthbreathers that never raised their own kids and tend to refer to people with large families as "breeders" have to even ask this question shows how lost in their own stupidity they really are!
