It is said that parenting is one of the most rewarding experiences in a person’s life. But it also comes with a lot of responsibilities, fears, and new challenges. And to overcome it all, parents need time and patience. To take care of kids means that you need to give them all your time and focus, and this might be equal to a job without working hours as they will need you 24/7.
Even though we might think that everyone understands how hard it is to raise a kid, some people in society hold the thought that stay-at-home parents do nothing. Bored Panda already covered a story about a stay-at-home mom who shared her struggles of raising her kid and how unappreciated she feels.

It was emphasized that people don’t see this as a job because it doesn’t bring you monetary value. Even though parents are responsible for raising a good, helpful and honest member of society, some say that what these parents (usually mothers) do is just sit at home and do nothing important. We can all agree that other opinions don’t matter, but what to do if someone from your personal surroundings feels this way?

TikTok user @sierra_not_ciara shared her day of being a stay-at-home-mom. At the beginning of her video, she stated that her boyfriend claims that she does nothing all day while he works. So, she decided to make a video that would show what a mother of two does all day. The video became viral with 10.7M views. In her video, she showed how she does her chores, takes care of the kids and the house. She filmed herself constantly giving her attention to two little ones, cleaning, washing, and mopping when she has a spare minute.

At the end of her video, she tells that once she is done with everything, she texts her boyfriend to ask what he wants for dinner, as it is evening already, but this time she decided to have some time for herself and fix herself a drink. Finally, she ended her video by expressing her frustration towards men who don’t appreciate their women for everything that they do.

The comments of the video were turned off, but later on, the TikToker commented on this situation by releasing two more videos with her boyfriend. Apparently, the man received some hateful messages about the situation. So Sierra asked people to stop it as she made the video after a fight that they had, so this was the way she decided to express her feelings of being hurt. In the video, they cleared up the situation and showed that they both are on good terms.
It seems that most of the time she has to multitask

What is known so far about stay-at-home moms and dads shows that people need to talk more about these things, discuss the problems, and find out each other’s needs. Only through discussion are people able to understand that they are not alone, get the help and support they need, and break certain stereotypes.
