[quote=Anonymous]I had to drop down to parttime after relocating for my spouse's job. I make enough to cover childcare and health insurance for me and child. It's worth it to me to keep her in childcare because: 1) I have time to actively network and job hunt 2) I can pick up short notice freelance work 3) She is in a great reasonably priced daycare that she loves and we don't want to lose her spot 4) I really like working and I don't think I would be a good full time SAHM 5) We come out a little bit ahead financially It works for us, but I can understand why someone who really wants to be a SAHM would choose to do that for a few years rather than hustling to make a small amount of money.[/quote]
