It’s nice we have men on this forum so their opinions are much needed. Why is it that men think stay at home mothers sit around and do nothing?
Especially if a man is working and not in the home the woman then has to take care of the house and the yard and repairs. How do they think this gets done?
Do you think that if your wife left u ,that you could honestly take care of the kids and the house and hold down a full time job yourself?
What goes through a man’s head when thinking of a stay at home mother?
and why do men think working women aren't capable of taking care of home or won't be good mothers?
anyway, men suck for most part...
me now runs out of this thread
Let me give you my opinion as a man.
its not that I think that stay at home mothers sit around and do nothing. They have many things to handle.
Its not fair to underplay it as of it is nothing, and it is unfair to make it sound like its some high pressure, fast paced, deeply technical job…its not. but its not some lavish, chill out do nothing, laze around type of role either (i.e. for good mothers)
and then all stay at home mothers are not made equal, there are those who provide their kids a rich experience, taking them out, spending quality time with them, and there are those who have half naked dirty kids being managed by the nany known as television.
dont tell me they dont exist.
PS: repairs and yardwork? wow…must be some gem of a guy who wants his wife to do all that in addition to raising his kids and managing the house..please..most guys are not like that

Re: why do men think....
Forget men, why is it us women think women who work are somehow rich and can spend loads of $$ and the ones who stay home are lazy?
Re: why do men think....
for one, those who work don't have to worry about begging guys for money and hence can spend loads of $$ as they like...
I totally agree with you! I am so ticked of too!FIRE!
but then if u think abt it a stay at home wife should be more fit since she’d have more time to buy/prepare healthy meals and go to the gym regularly than a woman who works all day and comes home and is too tired to work out or has to get lunch on the go… right right right right 
Anyways…i think being a stay at home mom is a luxury these days and working/career is a privelege.
Re: why do men think....
it is only a luxury if the guy is not a jerk...
Re: why do men think....
as long as a woman is happy wiht the decision she has made, I know there are a few ladies who don't work and don't have kids, and have really easy lives (their own words) and are really happy and grateful for that.....

Re: why do men think....
I think stay at home moms have a tough job. It may not be a demanding technical type role but the stress is there.
If you have the ability to stay home and bring up your children, you're doing a wonderful thing and it shouldnt be down played or trivialized. The time you spend with your kids is irreplaceable and priceless. No one can take care of a child better than a mother. Its a demanding job, Ive got nieces and nephews so I see my sisters and cousins going through this! This is no walk in the park people! A child keeps you busier than you can think! I baby-sit my niece a lot and when she was an infant, I remember one day of mine was spent watching the clock and feeding/changing her. I got some work done between burps and nap times but thats it. The day was over before I knew it and I was surprised. Aside from that, the older the child gets the busier parents become.
Being a stay-home mom is a tiring and thankless job! Men can complain because they find their clothes washed and ironed in their racks, they get fresh warm meals, the floor is clean and the dishes done and stacked out of sight! The bed's made, the children done with homework, the bathrooms clean..
Not to mention the dusting/polishing furniture.. thinking of innovative things to make for the family! Grrr ganday larkay!
