I'm unclear as to why women who stay at home with their children are so protective of that title and don't want women who stay home with their children but put their children in preschool a couple of days during the week for a couple of hours not on the same par?
This is almost getting funny.
My son is now 14. He's a straight A student, very respectful young man, works for our business part time and loves hanging out with his parents. I was a stay at home mom. But he went to preschool for a couple of hours a couple of times a week - Oh my! When he started kindergarten I still didn't work outside the home? What happens to the title then for those who don't think you should be called a SAHM unless you spend every minute with your child? Does it get stripped away? Is that a Part time SAHM? I still don't work out side the home. I run my business from our home office. Hmmmmm....wonder what title that should be.....
actually i have heard of another term, WAHM, work at home mom.
actually,I really don't need a title at all.I've never liked them.I don't know,it never really comes up in conversation.I never even saw the SAHM term until I saw it on this forum.Whatever makes you happy.

How about we just call ourselves moms. I think adding the "stay at home" "work at home" or "work away from home" prefix is stupid and was just added so that competition between mothers would ensue
I could give a damn if you (in general) are a stay at home mom or a working mom. What should matter is that you do what is best for you and your family- and even then- it isn't any of my business (unless of course you are actually harming your child)
