Re: "Motherhood is a job!"

That's not entirely fair - kids have weekends and holidays, and SAH parents are typically in charge of domestic tasks as well.

Depending on the age of the kid, it might very well require a great deal of effort when the kids are home, and people with daytime jobs are off on the evening and nobody says that's not a job, so...

But working parents are typically off weekends and holidays as well. And if domestic tasks were a full time job, then no working parent would have a clean house ever, and that's objectively not true.

I agree taking care of kids is work. It can be a lot of work, especially with multiple younger kids or children with disabilities. But plenty of mothers (and fathers) do work full time and still manage to be a parent, so I hate the arguments that somehow staying home makes you a better parent or you do things that working parents can't or don't do.

That depends on their schedule, but no, not arguing that.

I'm not really talking specifically about people who do both.
