What would a Stay-at-Home mom get paid? According to MSNBC, a recent study on Salary.com lists that the average stay-at-home mom's salary would be $138,095.
Along with the 90+ work week a stay-at-home mother puts in, the work she does encompasses the duties of a housekeeper, driver, janitor, psychologist and teacher -- just to name a few.
Somehow, $138,095 doesn't seem like enough.

I'm sorry, but I hate when they cram 10 jobs into stories like these, and hike up the salary using unrealistic guidelines (and I have absolutely nothing against SAHMs). Doesn't everyone play many different roles outside their job description in every job? That said, I agree that parenthood in general (SAH, working outside the home, mothers and fathers) is undervalued by our society.
We are researching these issues with the BBB, as the information reported in these claims is inaccurate.
We were very disheartened to see that just anyone can slander a person or business on the internet leaving no recourse and that such activity can tarnish what has been a good reputation for 7 years with thousands of satisfied customers.
