[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many of you work because you have to, as opposed to because you want to or think you should?[/quote] OP here. I mean, "have to" is relative. I recognize that life is full of choices and I am fortunate to have a partner who is able to bring home a decent salary. But we could not afford to live in the DC area on one of our incomes. I actually make more and carry the family's benefits, which pay for therapy and expensive meds for my one child with SN and other with a somewhat rare but thankfully managable medical condition. So, I guess we could move somewhere far less expensive and exist on less in theory, but in our current life, I need to work. [/quote]
