[quote=Anonymous]I was a PT nanny all throughout undergrad and noticed a lot of the working moms and even stay at home moms were frustrated! One time a dad apologized the house was a mess because Kate his wife who works FT couldn’t get to it! These were families who could afford to hire a nanny. I made sure I was crystal clear to my boyfriend that I wanted to stay at home with my kids. Culturally it’s also very acceptable for Muslim women to stay at home with the kids so this wasn’t a big deal with most of the men I dated. I actually work PT now and it’s hard to balance that! It’s hard being a woman in the US unless you have a lot of money and can hire lots of help or have a husband who truly does half of the housework. My dh doesn’t do much unless I nag him and after awhile I get tired of asking. I can’t think of a single mom I know who isn’t tired. [/quote]
