Stay At Home Moms

What an improvement we would see in our environment, if only mothers would stay at home and be good mothers to their children! Not only is this true while they are pre-schoolers, but even more importantly, when they are teenagers and need their mothers when they get home from school and have so many things to tell them!

One newly married couple decided when they first were married to live on only one of their salaries, which they did until the first child was born. By then, they were used to that and kept saving that extra salary as a down payment on their first home. Therefore, when they had to live on one salary after the children came they were not in debt and could keep living on the one salary.

One of the destructive things with mothers working is that their children are denied the great advantage of having their mothers there to read to them and take care of all their needs and teach them correct principles and how to be law-abiding citizens.

Children usually do better in their school work if their mothers are stay-at-home mothers. They can learn talents, can be cuddled more, and loved at the time they need the most loving. Mothers can keep their homes more organized and it is more conducive to eating family meals together where they can discuss the fun things they did that day. They are ready for Family Home Evening, Family Council Meetings, Family Prayer, and other wholesome things that the Adversary would rather not happen in homes. Satan is running rampant today, especially to destroy the traditional family, as he knows the family is the most important thing of God's creations. He wants to destroy everything connected with it. I was glad I was home and had time to read to my children, which made a big difference in their lives, especially in the life of my Doctor son.

Let's set the example and be at home where are children are and where we can influence them for good!
