I am new to this board and I'm looking for a little support. I have been a stay-at-home mom for 9 years. I have 4 children, 9, twins 7, and 4. Most of my friends/neighbors are working professionals. We get together at least once a month for a book club and for holidays and birthdays. I love these women but lately they have made me feel uncomfortable. Most of them have gone back to school to pursue a higher degree or they are contemplating a change in their job...they keep asking me what I am going to do. As if being a stay at home mom is somehow not enough. I feel like an under acheiver around them. I have thought about going back to school, but honestly I don't have the time. I volunteer at school 3 days a week, clean for an elderly gentlemen 1 day a week, watch 2 kids before and after school...I have a very full schedule. I guess what I want to know if if any of you are made to feel that way...like an under acheiver because we decide to stay at home and raise our children.
