The classic guide for stay-at-home mothers, now updated and revised in its 8th printing

This book was written to help women understand why so many mothers choose to interrupt their careers to raise their children. In it you'll find a new job description and career path to guide you through the most personally significant career change of your life: motherhood.

Motherhood is a career that has its own responsibilities, rewards, and challenges. It offers more opportunities for fulfillment and freedom than most other jobs in the working world. Yet, many mothers still feel as though they are considered "less equal" than others who work for pay.

Because a mother who would like to stay home and raise her children too often finds little support for her decision, many women hesitate to make this choice. "What do at-home mothers do all day?" they wonder. "Will I be wasting my education and the career skills I've invested so much in? Will my family and friends respect my choice? Can we manage -- financially and psychologically -- without my paycheck?"

This book will answer these questions and more, and help you make an informed decision about how you want to spend your parenting years.

What reviewers are saying . . . .

"A must for all mothers who are or want to be home with their children." -- Publishers Weekly

"By combining practical information with soothing wisdom, the authors help career women navigate the sometimes rocky road to full-time motherhood."  -- Parenting

"An important book which should be read by every woman considering motherhood. It may change the course of the history of her life and the life of her family."   --  Arlene Rossen Cardozo, Ph.D., author of Sequencing and Women at Home

"An unapologetic feminist justification of motherhood . . . Staying Home shatters the stereotype of homemakers as bubblebrains incapable of doing anything else."  --  Indianapolis Star
