Hello there
Is there anyone else like me?
Of all my mum friends I dont know anyone else who is at home with kids kind of through choice.
I didnt earn enough money to pay for nursery and then have any income at the end of the month. My husband earns an ok wage but he is no high flyer. We get by, and just dont spend on things we dont need...
Anyway, I am finding it quite hard that people are quite dismissive and dont get why i am not working.
Is it so wierd that I choose this? should I be busting a gut to run kids to school, nursery etc? I do need time-off which is hard to negotiate. But why am I feeling like an outcast?
