I think I'm a better mother because I go to work

[~*familyof3*~]

While im not a working mum, i have been and ive also been a study mum. I just love that you posted this in such a lovely way not once ever making either kind of mum sound bad.
I have no issue with either a working mum or sahm i think your all pretty darn awesome!!

Another one here who works and I do believe I am a better parent for it. I am really a crap SAHM and awful with all the housey stuff. I loved the idea of it when I was first pregnant, but the reality was different for me. I did not realise that I was better off for working until I actually was back in the work force.

We are in the position though were we do need me working, financially it was getting to hard with me a home. The stress of no money was not good for anyone in the family, the stress of having to juggle work and parenting is minor to that stress for us.
