[quote=Anonymous]You have to look at the salary of the SAHP. I had a masters degree but by the time we paid for a nanny who drove my child to therapies and replaced what I did, I would have owed money vs. brought anything home. It didn't make sense at that point. Likewise later on, we had an elderly family member in a bad situation live with us so we couldn't have afforded child/elderly care at the same time except if one person would have done it all which was near impossible, which is why I stopped after a year as the elderly family member would not leave the house. There are lots of benefits to having a SAHP. Except, if you have a mom like mine and far more benefits to her working for everyone's sanity. She didn't enjoy being a mom at all.[/quote]
