[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Clearly, neither of you has my husband's job. Might you even consider that some people have jobs in which they are not able to take off the way you are as to? " Then the other spouse is essentially forced to SAH or work pt, and hopefully the spouse with the inflexible job is being paid enough to compensate for the inflexibility.[/quote] Over $2 million per year. Yes, it's a worthwhile trade-off for us for a few years. I can still do some project work, but nothing that requires me to travel, work long hours on short notice, or work long hours regularly. Actually, I "could" do those things, but it would not make sense for us and he amount that we feel some parent should be available to our kids and for family issues. I'm no less competent than my friends who are currently working FT or PT because I stay home. We're doing what's best for our family, and what will allow us all the most flexibility in the near future. [/quote]
