I agree that perhaps a few of them stretch the truth a little bit, but in reality, taking care of kids even when they are in school is a lot of work.
There are plenty of parents, and I'm not trying to put them down, who basically do very little to help their kids grow up. Once they're in school, they just keep a roof over their head and tell them to keep each other busy or to play with their phones and ipads.... BUT there are some people who prefer to be more involved parents.
My mom would always take us places and make us food and find things to keep us occupied. From the time we were born until about the teenage years, I would say that she really did have a full time job with us. Being a stay at home parent can absolutely be a full time commitment.
I do think there are some people who don't really put in the full commitment and then they claim the title "Stay at home parent" when they're basically just unemployed and not even doing much at home, but I also think there are some who could probably really claim that as a job title.
IIN to hate "stay at home moms"?
