Best of the Net

December's Best of the Net site is Mothers at Home, a site dedicated to supporting stay-at-home parents. "Mothers At Home (MAH), Vienna, VA, is the nation's largest and oldest national nonprofit organization supporting mothers who have chosen, or would like to choose, to be at home to nurture their families."

Highlights:

• "At-Home Mothers Defy The Stereotypes ~ Setting The Record Straight!"
  Some myths and stereotypes of at-home parents are discussed, with detailed statistics from the U.S. Census Bureau and other agencies.

• Problems and Solutions
  MAH discusses some solutions to common problems many parents face, such as:
  • How do families survive on one income?
    
  • How do moms cope with feelings of isolation, or pressure from others to return to work?
    
  • How do you keep the romance alive in your marriage?
    
  • What about tips on camping with small children, settling into a new neighborhood, keeping up with housework, or post-partum depression?
    

• Feature Article
  The MAH site includes a feature article from Welcome Home, an award-winning monthly journal for the at-home mother.

This site offers much more, and is very deserving of About.com's December Best of the Net for Stay-at-Home Parents.
