[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ll, people just prioritize different things. Your friend prioritizes being home with kids over paying for college. I don’t think it’s selfish or not. I definitely don’t personally find any good reason why a woman would stay home bar a child with severe disabilities (even the ones w 7 figure husbands, but it doesn’t matter what I think. Every person gets to make their own life choices and set their own priorities. [/quote]

I still have young kids so I stay home. My Dh works an inflexible job and long hours to earn that seven figures.

I plan to go back to work in some capacity when kids are in school full time.[/quote]

I find it sad that your husband makes you do everything for the kids. [/quote]

I never said I do everything for the kids. We have 3 young kids and they keep me plenty busy. Dh is a very involved parent. He takes kids to sports and activities if he makes it home and always on weekends. Or he will stay home with 1-2 kids when I take a kid out.

I know not everyone has the same financial resources. My point was that if our family needed the money, I would absolutely work. It just seems irresponsible to not work when you can’t afford to send your kid to college or have retirement savings.[/quote]
