[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I did it long ago and no I didn't tell my kid why. I was fine with doing it and we could afford it by being a little more frugal. It helped me manage my own stress so i could be a calm parent, advocate and teacher to him. Even with him in school full time i have stayed part time so I can help him with homework, advocate as needed, volunteer at school and take care of myself. I do the cooking and I enjoy that. Plus, I was the lower earner so it made more sense. I hated feeling so pulled and stressed out and it made our whole household happier. I get some snide comments now and then, but whatever. Feminism is about choices and I made choices that worked for me. If my husband made less money than I did he would have been the one to cut back.[/quote]
