Being a single mom and always having to be the bad guy since there is nobody else helping raise the child the single mom has to always be the one to discipline the child and say no to things and see the disappointment when she can't give the child things she really wants and we can't afford.

I left my career in the banking/information processing industry to support my wife in her career, and ended up home-schooling our two children. Our younger just graduated with honors on his undergraduate, and our older already has her masters, both in business.

Looking for work, anything will do, wages negotiable. Have experience in medical field both human and animals, also have experience as a caregiver to dementia patients, but at this point I'm in need of a job no matter what it may be. Prefer near Columbia, South Carolina but willing to relocate if need be. Thanks in advance #OfficeAssistant #caregiver #honest #hardworking #backtoworkmoms #jobsearch #Accounting

I have been a stay-at-home mom for about 10 years. My last job was cashiering. I learned quick I'm a hard worker. I would like to talk more either on the phone or in an interview thank you

I am trying to be patient, persistent, prayerful. I have been looking for both a job and a new house to rent, both at the same time, and am getting really frustrated and burned-out! I've been job-hunting since January, more strongly over the last 2 months. I have put in over 20 applications since the beginning of April, and nothing! Not even Walmart or Walgreens! I have been out of the workforce for the last 16 years, as a stay-at-home mom. My husband was making enough money for us at the time. He retired last summer and we moved to Tennessee. We have since found that the cost of living where we are is higher than where we were, and the job market pays less than where we were. But, there were multiple reasons we moved. Anyway, I put together my resume in such a way that any employer can see that I have been utilizing some of my skills at home. I homeschooled my 2 children for a few years, using Excel, Word, Windows, etc instead of a pre-made curriculum. I keep Excel logs and files for everything. Anyway, you get my point. I have extensive customer service experience, but nobody wants to even give me a chance! I have even called a few of the employers back, to check on the status of my application. Lately, most of the jobs listed on Indeed, Monster, Snag, and sent to me through emails are ones that I have already put an application for, or I am not qualified for. What can I do from here?
