[quote=Anonymous]I was making a high income but once I had kids I kept my job but worked part-time. My two kids have just graduated college and I am back to full time with the same company. I did not take a major step back in my career like I may have done if I had quit the workforce for 20 years. I thought several times about being a SAHM and had the support of my high income DH. 15 years into the marriage he became a depressed, alcoholic on the verge of losing his job. He has recovered somewhat, for now, but I am thankful I did not become a 100% SAHM and would have been able to support myself and my kids, if need be, without my DH. I realize mine is an extreme situation that I hope no one else has to deal with.[/quote]
