[quote=Anonymous]In the current economic climate, I would not go down to 1 adult in your family working. I'm also personally not a fan of putting yourself in that position in your marriage, both in terms of current marital dynamics and putting yourself at risk in the future. I have teens now. In my opinion if you stick it out in the workforce, you earn a lot of flexibility that makes working when they are older and you actually need a lot of flexibility much easier. And you're getting paid and investing in your current and future earning power the whole time. I'm a little confused how you are getting "9000" emails a day about a 5 year old and a 17 month old. What activities have homework for a 5 year old? These are actually the easy years to work, in my opinion. The kid is in a designated spot all day and there is drop off and pick up. You need to be organized, streamline, and what is your spouse doing. [/quote]
