[quote=Anonymous]OP here - Thanks for commiserating. I think I'm having a hard time because I grew up in a house with a SAHM and a father who worked his butt off to make sure we had everything we needed and then some. And I'm now in a house where both parents work full-time and we are doing fine financially but definitely not rich by any stretch. So it feels like I'm not being the mother my mom was or the provider my dad was. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with my life but am still getting used to the fact that it's not what I grew up with. Know what I mean? And no, these aren't the only two jobs in the world. My husband keeps reminding me that just because this other job came my way doesn't mean I have to take it (assuming it is offered). So I think for now I'll continue to be grateful for the work situation I'm in and see what comes next. [/quote]
