[quote=Anonymous]Don’t underestimate the relationship implications. It seems to hit the worst after the kids are in school…. Even a half way decent partner understands how hard it is to deal with littles all day. And the cost of childcare alone makes it worth it in many cases. But once the kids are in school full time, that’s when it’s sooo easy to fall into the “what were you doing all day?” from the working spouse, and the wife wanting a break on the weekends but the husband thinking that’s HIS break and free time from work…. The bean counting of chores, etc. Of course this doesn’t always happen. But the danger point seems to be somewhere in that area after the kids are in school full time and the SAHM doesn’t return to work. Then there is the awkward social aspect…. If you go with your DH to work events, what are you going to talk to people about? Kids? Play dates? [/quote]
