This is all true. However, stay at home moms who don’t have a side hustle or aren’t bringing in any income should feel confident in their role. I used to call myself “just” a stay at home mom, but there’s no “just” about it, so I don’t anymore. This ain’t a dig at side hustles, or working moms, or anything, just a statement that you never have to justify being a stay at home mom by saying “but I also do X.” This is tangential to the comments in the video, but maybe it will give another “just a SAHM” a confidence boost. 🙂

Because my wife took care of house and family, I was able to take care of the income WE earned together. 31 years later and life is still very very good.

I was a teacher for ten years, then sahm, now homeschool mom. I don't do a side hustle. This is by far my busiest occupation. But also so rewarding. I am happy I can take care of my parents as they grow older. They have always taken care of me and my siblings too. Never forget how important it is to take care of your loved ones, to invest time in them.

IMO, being "just" a stay at home mom alone is a full time job even without the side hustles. Let's give credit where credit is due and not give even a hint that somehow it is not enough to just be a traditional mom.

[JMPots]

Yes! I homeschool my son and work as a gardener 4 days a week, he comes with me. I’m grateful for what God has provided us!

[anna]

I’m fully a sahm with a toddler. I’m constantly busy. Who has time for a side hustle?

[christina]

Pay somebody to keep those kids and see if it isn't a job.

[jessiemunana]

I'm a stay-at-home mom of almost 9 years and homeschooling my kids for 6 years. That's two full time jobs. My husband has said he will do whatever it takes to keep it that way. He values my jobs and can see the importance of them both and understands the scripture and what God calls us to do as wives, mothers and homemakers.

I do more work now that I stay home than when I worked three jobs.

I'm a SAHM of 4. Currently homeschooling 3 since I graduated the oldest one last year. I am a natural light photographer on the side. My husband and kids are usually with me on those weekends when I have a shoot. I can edit my photos while my kids are reading or having free time. It has been such a blessing from God ❤

My mom is stay at home; she has ten kids, all with one man (they are still married, and did not have kids until they married), and we are all homeschool kids. Have never gone to a public or private school. Not only has she taught, she also encouraged us in our hobbies, fixed literally ANYTHING (it's honestly scary, she can even fix ruined paintings), made us little gifts, cooks amazing meals every day, mills her own flour, does library trips regularly, and still finds time to make art, jewelry, and clay crafts. She gets worn out, but she is amazing and a hero. (You would not believe the patience this woman has.)

I'm a stay at home mom. No side hustle. But the hubs has his own business on top of being a farmer, so I'm basically his secretary. There's so much to do from day to day! Between God time, cooking, cleaning, gardening/outside maintenance, bookwork, kids school stuff, home projects, exercise and church things I'm involved with I'm grateful for the hubby I have who is extremely hard working and the time I have to be able to do all these things!

[sarahlantto]

Yes, yes, yes! Exactly. A friend of mine once said "if it aint working for your kids, it aint working for you" Women are great at "figuring things out" to make things work for the family. Because they LOVE their family!!!

I'm a stay at home mom, and I'm homeschooling our 5 kiddos (ages 13mo-12 years). I wouldn't want it any other way. Very grateful to be avle ro do it. I'll never get this time back, so I'm really enjoying and appreciating it.❤

[Pinkiiiiii]

Dude, do you know how much work cleaning and maintaining an entire house, cooking three meals a day for an entire family, AND raising children (sometimes MULTIPLE), some even doing home schooling: all of this is a FULL time job in itself. Ive always been a career woman, but i have immense amount of respect for ANY spouse that stays home and holds down the fort. I know in the future when I marry, both my spouse and myself have to cut back on career or take turns to have enough bandwidth to raise a family and maintain a home.

As a single working woman, I already struggle with maintaining my own apartment, cooking for myself, and working full time. People underestimate how much work goes into self care, family care, and house upkeep bro. That needs to end. Show some appreciation yall 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Shows that prudence is sometimes taking the middle road, but always prioritizing what's right, which is family ❤

[rachelzecevich]

My beautiful Grandma that was my best friend in my young years, that has passed away but she was born in 1918 she was the most amazing human and fascinating! She had two boys and my grandpa was shipped out to WWII.

She worked at a Ordinance plant here in IN and later was at the Mill for a time until my Grandpa got back from the war.

Several years later she gave birth to my Mom then started Rescue mission work❤

To me she was the most loving, tender hearted, caring, patience, and compassionate.

True Proverbs 31 woman, I pray I carry out her legacy of faith as God guides my steps!

One can be an industrious stay-at-home mom and not be earning an income.

[TheRozylass]

I had a few side hustles over the years, but truthfully, running a household on one income and homeschooling five children was enough of a full-time job for me. I WAS the girl boss of our family and home enterprise. Dad earned the living and I made the living worthwhile.

[pattyhansen]

sahm here. no side hustle, etsy shop, yt channel, etc...learned my lesson with those. Only Every once in awhile I sell a knitted object LOL. My husband has come to regret the 2-3 times he asked me to take in kids for babysitting to make a little extra cash. I don't have TIME for a side hustle & I was never going to cut it as a girl boss! I am a sahm, that stays at home & only works FOR the home.
