[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regardless of if a woman or man works, if they are married its family/household money.  Its sick that people say a woman is mooching off a man staying at home to care for their family, home, kids, etc.  Its a decision between the two of them.  Fully funded college fund to me means paying for a state college and grad school.  Sometimes a woman working, depending on her income, is financially not worth it.  It wasn't in our situation between day care, and later elderly care, and then teens who had after school activities that would conflict with working (and I'm not denying them, as I support them pursing their interests).[/quote]

I am and will always be a working mom by choice, but I 100% agree with this. I find it disgusting when people call SAHMs mooches. In the vast majority of cases they are doing the best they can. It’s just that health/SN issues in the family, or their husband’s lack of participation in the household or with childcare, or their own low energy and lack of organization make it impractical to work while taking good care of the family. Better to have a chill SAHM and fewer expenses than a harried WOHM.[/quote]
