[quote=Anonymous]I dropped down to part time, paid at the same rate (1/2 time = 1/2 pay) but lost all benefits (which were poor to begin with so we didn't use them anyway). The free time lets me get errands done on weekdays when stores are quieter and I don't have kids in tow, I can make real meals at least some days instead of throwing pre made stuff in the oven when we get home, and I get to exercise and have a little down time to decompress if I want. Plus the ability to spend some extra time with the kids. For me, it's win-win while the kids are younger. I get why it might not be for everyone - but I enjoy the household stuff and don't want to pay someone to do what I like. But, I also know I wouldn't be good as a full time sahm. A little work lets me appreciate the time with the kids and the household stuff more. [/quote]
