How Much Is A Stay At Home Mom's Work Worth?

I was browsing the web looking for a good read about stay at home moms when I chanced upon this post. I find it quite interesting. Being a mother is considered to be one of the toughest job (if you could even call it a "job") there is and I have to agree with that whole-heartedly. 

Some people might think that if you just stay at home, you could just relax and stuff, but heck, no! There's a lot more than just staying at home. Despite that, I wouldn't trade anything to my being a mom. Like what they always say, "Being a full time mom is one of the highest paying jobs, because the payment is PURE LOVE!". It's true, no monetary amount can ever compare to the love I receive from my husband and son every single day. ♥

But, hmm. What if, just what if, a stay at home mom receives salary, how much should she really be making? Let's find out. Here's a cute infographic about a mom's work worth. Just for fun. :-)

Can you believe that we would earn almost twice as much as a working mom and work more than double the hours? WOW!

By the way, I saw this same image too from MrsMommyHolic's blog. Cute! It's really amazing how stay at home moms stumble on the same page. Love it! ♥

  5. Full time profession nga ang motherhood. And just imagine if the mom also works in an office tapos pagdating ng bahay, work pa rin with household chores naman and taking care of the kids. Super woman talaga...the earliest to wake up and the one who's always late to sleep, making sure things are alright before retiring to bed for the night.

  6. Being a mom sure makes us jills of all trades. The well-being of our children depend on it. So overwhelming yet so rewarding.

  9. If a child gets sick, that's more working hours for mom again. Thanks to all the moms for doing a really hard work. I can only fulfill the job of a stay at home mom only by the grace of God.

  12. Stay at home Moms are working in the name of love while the working moms are working for the company in the name of cash to bring for the family.

  13. True true! It's not a joke to be a work-at-home mom! :) Kaya hats off to all WAHM!

  14. Stay-at-home moms do not often get the credits due to them. On the brighter side, love is priceless so it is hard to monetize what a mom's work is worth- stay-at-home or not. :D
