[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I have told him that I don't see myself ever being a SAHM. He is not wrong in what he wants. He grew up in nice suburb with a mom who stayed home until he went to school. He loved being able to have a mom who was there with him in his most formative years, and parents who were always there to help with homework, make dinner, go to his school events, etc. He wants the same for his kids. I can't fault him for that. It is weighing on me the more we start to get serious. He thinks I will change my mind once we have kids, or be willing to go part-time. I don't want to to do either of those things. [/quote]

Continue to be honest with him but also know that I have seen many friends and acquaintances do a 180 on child rearing views after they actually have kids.  For example,  pregnant coworker “we will never have a nanny”...They have two now.  Or, my career driven best friend “I’d never stay at home”,  cried for before she was schedule to return from maternity leave and is now a SAHM of 3. [/quote]

I agree completely. One of my friends who was the ost excited about being a SAHM went back to work after 6 months. Another friend who said she would never SAH went back after her first child but then did sah after her second child for a few years. You just never really know. [/quote]
