I quit "working" in 2002 to become a stay at home mom to my biological children. Best decision I ever made for myself AND for them!
I do agree it's not for everyone. Working in the home 24/7/365 is extremely difficult physically and emotionally. It took me around three years to figure out I needed to put some sort of end to my work day (meaning nights and weekends shouldn't be spent the same way my days were) and it wasn't a horrible thing for me to leave things a mess once in a while and hit the town with friends. It took about the same amount of time for me to accept that spending all day in my pajamas didn't make me less of a woman either, now I live in pj pants and can't imagine having to dress up everyday or load up myself with make up, even though it's so much fun to do while going out once in awhile I think that routine is for the birds LOL!
Staying home is the hardest most challenging "job" I've ever had but I know of very few women and men that have made the choice to make the switch that regretted it.
Best of luck to you in whatever you decide!
