[quote=Anonymous]First of all, not only will it be difficult to get back into the job market when you're ready, but you'll likely be doing so with a pay cut (this has been the case with all of the women I know who left, even for just a year, to be home with baby). Second of all, the problem I have is that you, the woman, take all of the risk. If the marriage falls apart and you haven't re-established a career, it's going to be very hard for you. And I don't care how good a marriage is, there is always a possibility that something will happen. And we no longer live in a society in which a woman is automatically awarded a generous alimony (if that ever really did exist). I would keep the job. It will be really hard for the next 4-5 years, but you'll be thankful for it. [/quote]
