[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, because they won't have jobs.[/quote] +1 If my own circle is any indication, a lot of mommy-tracked jobs have been the first to go in this. [b]I think you will see men staying at home as well. There are many couples where the husband works in something like sales, and the wife works in something more stable. In think in those cases, the person with the more stable job will continue to work, no matter their gender.[/b][/quote] +1 A lot of women have stable (not necessarily high paying, but stable) jobs with retirement and good health benefits for the family. Teachers for well funded public systems, nurses, back office accounting and HR (those are jobs that need to be done so companies don't cut them right away), government, university administrator, etc. Given the cost of COBRA, it makes sense not to give them up. Also, if you're close enough to a pension, it makes sense to stay.[/quote]
