Many women are willing to sacrifice their own ambitions in order to raise a family with complete devotion. They choose not to work - or at least not to have a demanding career that is all-consuming. However, there are ways to augment the family income and have job satisfaction even if you stay at home. You can make money while being a mom first.
Of course, you can do what many do and that's get a job. Lots of families have both parents working, sometimes even full-time. There is also the part-time option, when one parent will work when the children are in school, or when one parent works days and the other works nights. However, there is little doubt that the family suffers when both parents work outside the home.
Mom can stay home with the kids and still earn money - and have fun doing it. You may choose to care for other children while their parents are at work. This gives your own children playmates and can bring in a good income. It's a confining way of life, but so is any job. You can't do what you like or run errands if you work nine to five outside the home.
The computer age offers different opportunities to stay-at-home parents. Buying and selling online is one way people earn thousands of dollars yearly. This can be fun, if you enjoy shopping and are informed on the value of things people will buy. In addition, there is no costly commute, no need for extra clothes suitable for the office, and no daycare or after-school expenses for your own children.
Posting a popular blog is another way to generate income online. A blog with lots of visitors will attract advertisers who will pay for each hit on their link. Other sites pay a commission on those who click onto their site while reading yours. Successful bloggers can get paid for coaching others to similar rewards.
Entrepreneurs set up websites that use skills they would otherwise use in the public marketplace. Fitness experts can offer virtual coaching, talented sewers or knitters can sell patterns, crafters can sell completed projects or guidelines for those who want to do it themselves. Homemakers market goat's milk soap or body lotions they manufacture in their kitchens. Gardeners sell seeds and plants. The possibilities are endless.
Freelance writers have found a great market online, too. Some sites solicit generic articles for resale to magazines or websites. This kind of writing can be fairly undemanding and low paid. However, if you like to write or need the typing practice, it's fun and brings in pin money. Other clients are looking for serious writers who are willing to put in time and effort and will be rewarded accordingly.
As in any other line of work, some succeed wildly working from home, while others plod along at whatever level they are happy with. Talent will out, so find something you really want to do and then do it well. It's very satisfying, and making your own money is a great ego boost.
