Can you really say that being a stay home Mother is a career?

if i had never worked in the business world and was just a stay at home, i would not have the same knowledge. i love that i stayed at home, raising kids. we did what our family needed to do and thankfully, have been able to do it. works for all four of us. but now, looking at going back to work in a couple years (youngest son not going to be home alone), i dont see it working well. cant figure out how it is going to be a real advantage in our family.

but no, i would not place this woman as getting the business world, working while raising kids, or working in a work environment.

in NO way am i saying that what this woman is doing or has done is any less.... any less of a challenge or of value, than the person that works.
