    Dear Krishnaamma,

    Thanks a lot for coming to my poll ques from hema's thread and sharing your views... I totally agree with you that how much ever we earn by working for some one it will not be enough fot satisfying our growing needs...i have noticed this in this 22 months of marriage.. iam able to imagine how much responsibility you all mothers are having esp when living away from India...Thanks again for your pointers on taking care of little ones...am sure it would help many young mothers .Btw Raghuu is my husband's pet name:). If you dont mind can you tell me how old are you and how old is your son...i see both Indian and Dubai locations in your profile...have you been travelling like us ?

    Regards,
    ManuuRaghuu

    Hello Ladies,

    I understand the need to stay at home once u become a mom. But what I see from browsing through the posts in IL itself that once the kid becomes 2-3 years he is quite independent and you will have free time for your career. As its quite difficult to get a job after a break, I see that they are getting bored. So if we somehow manage 2-3 years both career and kid ( with jus doing some basic job in office ), don't we achieve both ??

    Hopefully I didn't sound like a hi-fi carrer oriented women.. I am yet to have a kid .. I am ready to be stay at home at any time after that.. but jus wanted know to others views on this ..

    Regards,
    Malar

    Hi Mannu,

    Happy to see your reply. I am SumathiSudar and I am 44 years old. ( actually you must not ask this in a open forum mmmmmmmmm....Big Laugh) Just kidding. it is ok. My son is working with Wipro from last June. He completed his B.E Comp and got this job through Campus.:hiyaAnd I am here with my husband now in Saudi. So I use to shuttle here and there.
    You asked "have you been travelling like us?" means, you are also travelling here and there? where are you from India?

    Have you tried for putting the poll?

    Hi Malar,

    Good point.:hiya i dont think it is that difficult to get a job after a certain break in countries like USA provided you have a EAD/work permit so that you can do flexible jobs and also take care of your kids...am not sure about India.Please share your inputs as why do you think it is difficult to get a job after a break in India/abroad.

    I also invite moms who are have started a career again in India/abroad after a break to share your views and enlighten us on this aspect.And Stay at home moms let us know how you deal with boredom when your kids become independent.

    Regards,:wave:

    I'm not sure which one is better because both have negatives and positives, but I think it is good to have a working husband and housewife or vice versa, because someone is always at home to answer any important calls that come home (from companies, children, relatives, etc). There would also be another person to talk to once you get home...and that person (either the mother or father) would listen to you...and discuss whatever you would want to talk about without frusteration (with both mom and dad working they might have complications at work thus further irritation comes when people ask them questions). So as of right now I like my amma being a housewife because if she actually worked then the whole atmosphere would be different. I probably wouldnt be as close to her as I am right now! Keep rocking amma:thumbsup
