[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do you consider it paid for with your money? Why isn't the cost of the nanny considered as a proportion of your/DH's salaries? Isn't he also financially responsible for childcare? I realize that money is fungible, and that its easy to say that it's X% of one partners salary - but consider an expense as part of the total HHI. Or, you could consider that your DH can easily cover it, and then you can save all of your salary.[/quote] This is fiction. The bottom line is that one partner, in this case, the husband, must work, while the lower earner, the wife, can choose to work or not. The arrangement does not work in any other way. So, yeah, it’s the wife’s income and how much of it goes to the nanny that is the decision maker.[/quote]
