Quote From: jettavAJust want to make clear that though I am a stay at home mom I AM an equal partner to my husband and I thank God that I have a husabnd who feels the same way. I may be home doing all the household chores and taking care of our children and doing the grocery shopping and whatever else and I may not be getting paid with money but I am still an equal partner to my husband. I do know some working mom's who are lousy at house keeping and taking care of their children, does that still make them an equal partner to their husbands. Whatever the case, working or stay at home moms, it doesn't matter, we are equal to our spouse as long as each one is pulling theri weight and doing their parts in maintaing the home and the family which includes giving a helping hand at times......
I often refer to things I have to do at night (like putting kids to bed, baths, etc) as the night shift. My husband works a lot of hours, but on the nights he's home, he lends a hand with whatever I need him to. It's not that we have to do it all by ourselves, but ultimately the job is ours.
I can't imagine taking a job outside of the home and telling my co-workers, "I'm gonna do half of my job, but then I want you to do your job and the rest of mine". I'd get fired.
