What's Mom Worth? It's More Than You Think!

Give this woman a raise!

Stay-at-home moms work an average of 96.6 hours per week. Working moms do "mom jobs" 55.9 hours per week -- in addition to their regular jobs!

So what would mom's paycheck look like? Factoring in time and a half for overtime, stay-at-home moms would earn $115,431 a year, while working moms would earn $63,471.

Of course, in lieu of a check you could give mom 38,477 long-stemmed red roses, but most moms will gladly accept one heartfelt "thanks" instead!

Tally mom's salary at mom.salary.com and print her a check!
