Reply #223: There are single mother's who work and still homeschool . . . .

It takes a really good support system though. But your situation is not really the one to which I am referring. I have had many Mom's tell me they can't afford to stay home when really what they are saying is that they don't want to give up having all extra's that a second income brings. I worked with a girl a while back that wanted to stay home after she had her second baby and her husband went out and bought a new car so she would have to stay working in order to make the payments. Her plan was to get pregnant a third time so that surely he would let her stay home with the kids. Sadly, that didn't happen either. She is in a job she hates in order to afford the lifestyle that her husband wants them to have. I am just saying that many people, not everyone, but many people can make lifestyle adjustments and stay home with their kids.
