I was thinking Work At Home Mom, but there's no O in that. Maybe it's a typo.

Ok, now you have me wondering.If it was a working at home mom would they have said with children???Isn't that redundant?If you find out for sure, Michele, let us know.

Seems weird to have an acronym for that. I'm so used to people just saying they work, but that is a lot more definitive. That way you know she has a child or children too instead of a WOHSW (single woman) or WOHW (wife) or WOHUM (unmarried mom) or WOHD (divorcee), etc. ;-)

well, yeah but it does acknowledge that moms work at home too... so, i think it's kinda nice to have an acronym for it.
