[quote=Anonymous]If I could do it again I would have gone back to work and found a nanny or nanny share. I did not want to do drop off daycare and we struggled to justify the cost of a nanny (would have basically been my whole salary) at the time. On the one hand, I don’t regret staying home and the time spent with my kids. DH traveled a lot so I did almost all of the heavy lifting parenting wise. On the other, I am completely dependent financially on DH, he seems to have forgotten all of the work I did to make our life run/raise the kids, and I’m very frustrated with my options for work. Definitely cannot return to the field I worked in fifteen years ago. Now I’m stuck with extremely low paying part time work—and even there it’s opportunities found only through connections. Not a lot of companies looking for a middle aged lady who has been out of the work force for fifteen years. [/quote]
