Thinking outside the box is what stay-at-home moms must start doing. And mothers who have a greater disadvantage are the low income moms. At least, mothers in the middle income bracket start with something.
Is usually not the mothers fault if she has to apply for government assistance. It's very depressing for mom to struggle from day to day to improving her circumstances.
Many low income moms have come from dysfunctional and abusive family situations. These circumstances have led to unplanned pregnancies.
Out of more than 2 pregnancies, 1 is unplanned or unwanted. These problems are more severe in higher dysfunctional families.
So what is mom to do? All of a sudden mom is under tremendous pressure to provide for her child. With lack of education or skill. All of a sudden mom's help and handouts have run dry.
With unpaid bills, and rising childcare costs, mom is forced to work many hours for very little pay. And to add to this, mom now needs reliable transportation. This is added stress that also affects how mom raises her child.
Mom becomes emotionally drained and depressed and unable to give her child quality attention. This can affect her child's behavior. A child needs confidence to excel in school.
When a child craves his/her mother's attention and can't receive this attention, it can cause negative effects on behavior.
And when mom tries, with all her might, to focus her remaining energy on her child, she is wore out by nightfall.
The sad part is, mothers who work a regular job heard about 15 to 20% LESS than single women. The stressful life of a working mom contributes to poor eating habits.
And for the middle income mother taxes take a even bigger chunk of moms income. Even worse, the mom whose income is above the "earned income tax" level receives no assistance.
This forces the middle income mom to work even harder increasing her stress level. Working harder with no assistance is harmful to mom's health. So how can mom enjoy her work?
Well let's add up mom's typical day. Mom has sore feet from standing all day. Stressed to her limit because her boss is never satisfied. Forced to endure gossip from her coworkers all day long. Then has to deal with rush hour traffic after work.
Now after picking up her child from daycare who is hyperactive; totally in need of her undivided attention. Mom's cell phone is ringing with additional demands from family and friends. While mom is exhausted, yet trying to hide her pain from her child.
This kind of pressure was never meant to be placed on the human body. So is there a easier way? Yes! A home business involving affiliate marketing. Your start up costs is FREE.
You can run your affiliate home business from the public Library. The tax savings are great. There are Internet books, and companies that will walk you through the entire affiliate marketing process.
Do a google or yahoo search for affiliate marketing. Make a sacrifice and do some research on the products you'd like to sale.
Locate someone online who is willing to work with you. Someone you will feel comfortable with. Your lunch break would be a opportune time to do this.
By sacrificing your time and making the extra effort, you could enhance your lifestyle and instill a business attitude in your child. Just do it, this is what Nike says.
The freedom and peace of mind experienced by working from home, can never be truly explained. If you were to smell oven baked brownies, could you explain the taste? You will never know the joy of working from home until you taste it.
