Right here, you put down working Moms. I think both jobs are difficult and shouldn't be compared. I think Mom's that work outside the home can argue it's hard to work 40 hours or more and then still do all the laundry, housework, and child interaction/bonding in a much shorter amount of time...

This is the same debate all over again. I just want to point out that when SAHM say stuff like this, it makes us Mother's that work outside the house feel like you think staying home is harder...think of everything you do for your house (not taking care of your child, but housework) during a day when a work outside the home mother is working. That's something we have to do when we get home. Even if you slice up foods for your lunch, we had to do that early in the AM, before we left. If you fold one basket of clothes, we have to do that when we get home.

Again, I'm not saying either one is "hardest"...I don't think that a title that any Mom should take from another....
