[quote=Anonymous]OP here— Thanks for replies so far. Trying it out without her income (or with half of it) for a few months sounds like a good idea. I expect our savings will be the thing that takes a hit, but surely we can find savings somewhere. Have people who have gone through experienced any surprises? Anything to watch out for in terms of spending or how it affects parenting or a relationship? (My wife is not interested in being a true stay at home parent. It’s just that she doesn’t want to be tied to a computer and a desk in an uninspiring job and she craves more flexibility and free time. She will likely try her hand at something entrepreneurial, or maybe dabble with hobbies. She’s struggling to find the thing she wants to do and wants the freedom to figure it out. She also wants more flexibility to be with the kids.) [/quote]
