STAY AT HOME MOM VS WORKING MOM

STAY AT HOME MOM VS WORKING MOM

I recently caught myself thinking about this debate of who is better! A stay-at-home mom or a working mom? That's because I've had a fair share of the questionings, doubts, and thoughts.

The debate has been on social media and has left some women feeling unworthy. Since I've worn or still wearing both hats, I thought I should share my experience on being a working mom and a stay at home mom.

As a working mom, one of the things I face (you can call it self-questioning) is am I being my best by being away from my son? Have I missed a significant milestone in my son's life? How long will I continue with this? 

After much reflections, I knew I'm doing the right thing. 

BEING A WORKING MOM

It's takes a LOT OF SACRIFICE, ENERGY AND PLANNING TO BE A WORKING MOM.  I will continue to have a huge respect for women who have learned to keep their jobs and home successfully. It takes grace and will to leave the house early and come back home to continue the job left undone at home. 

I've learned that as a working mom,the most important thing is that my child has the optimal growth, he's properly cared for at his day-care and I can still do what I'm passionate about as a lady, a wife, and a mom.

The bottom line is that all I'm doing is for MY FAMILY.

BEING A STAY AT HOME MOM

As a stay at home mom, I cherished the moments I stay at home nurturing my little one. Being part of every developmental milestone. Giving him the love he deserves.

 It's a privilege I can't take for granted. I've realized that it takes a lot to keep a home, change diapers and take care of your husband. I think it's a ministry

Would I trade this for something else? NEVER! I'm grateful that while at home, I can contribute financially (check HERE)

So, about the debate of who is better? It's is just hilarious for these reasons:

✓Motherhood is not a competition

✓Stay at home mom does more than just baby-sit a child

✓Working mothers sacrifice a lot to work and keep a home

✓The bottom line is that your decision has your family in mind

Don't let's the voice without drown your inner voice.
