Is it time to break stereotypes?

If you are a 'Stay at home Mom', you are easily stereotyped as having all the free time in the world & enjoying life in a way that working moms can't. Do you agree that a 'stay at home' mom's life is easier than a working Mom's life or is it just a stereotype created by the society?

I dont think its easy to be a stay at home mom. You wont get even a single minute for yourself. And the worst thing is that everyone will ask you what you where doing all day😡.even now i skip my sleep to log in to firstcry...😞now everyone at my home is sleeping. I can also sleep. But if i want to do something for myself i can do only when my baby is sleeping. And i enjoy sharing my thoughts here...so i dont mind about my sleep. Working moms are also not so lucky they have to finish all jobs at home before they leave to office and after office time they have to enter job of a housewife.no one will give them any consideration 😫. And there are some lucky guys too but not the case with everyone be same. I have been working for 5 years. And now i am a stay at home mom. I find this much better.

working mom's usually hire maids, babysitters etc. to maintain their house.. which results in mom's not spending enough time with their kids which results in not caring more about their kids, being ignorant about the behaviour of nannies and babysitters, maids not cleaning homes properly and cooking food hurriedly... this inturn affects family's health... kids lack parents love
whereas us stay at home mom's do every chores by ourself whenever baby's sleeping or if someone at home is taking care of the baby we do our house chores by paying full attention to the chores and doing it neatly.. we give our 100percent commitment and care to our kids..

I agree with your comment, but I would like to disagree to the point of view you have towards working moms. let me tell you that it is not easy for any mother leaving her child to the care of others. there are so many circumstances to support that. one of the main factor is finance, or no help or support from family or friends. how many of us do that? to support a working mother. I have seen the concern in their eyes when the day of their joining back to work comes near. it is unfortunate that we do not have much support for the working moms , hence they are forced to turn to outside help.
yes you are right that they do not have much time for their kids, or house is not clean etc etc....but it not the no.of hours spend or the cleanest home one has that decides on the bonding between a child and mother, it is how you choose to spent your time with your kids. infact there are many who is finding quality time so that they can make the best use of the moments they have.

yes... stay at home moms are stereotyped by our society. nobody looks at the sacrifices stay at moms make for their family. they don't get any 'my time' for themselves at all. i believe staying at home moms have a harder life and thet dont get the due respect they should be given for the sacrifices they make on daily basis.
