[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH is the breadwinner and for the first ten years of my sons life I worked part time as a consultant to supplement. He's home by 4pm every day. That being said, he has a modest income compared to most people on this forum and he leaves for work very early. If we didn't want the extra money I could have stayed home. And he would have still been home by 4pm every day. Our family doesn't live to work, we work to live. Our HHI isn't huge but we have a very nice, relaxing life.[/quote] That is hard to do in DC and most major cities. Is he Fed, b/c home by 4 would get a side long glance at most private companies. We couldn't make it work on a single Fed salary, unless we move to some far flung exurb with 1.5hr commutes. So it's either demanding job with SAHM or 2 WOHP with steady jobs. Are there any SAHM happy with the hard driving breadwinner husband doing his best to provide for them or does the absence just cause too much resentment?[/quote]
