[quote=Anonymous]This is such a strange thread. Of course your role as a SAHM has monetary value to your household (in addition to other more intangible benefits) because if you went back to work full time, you would need to pay someone to fulfill your role as childcare provider at the very minimum. And for some households, you would need to also add on housekeeping, $ spent on commuter gas and wear-and-tear on car, money spent on career wardrobe, eating lunches out, lost time on weekends for shopping/laundry, etc. depending on how you do division of labor to tackle household tasks that you may have previously covered alone in your role as a SAHM.[/quote]
