[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a certain income you have to earn over your childcare costs to make it worthwhile for you to continue working? In my case care costs a little over half of my income and about a quarter of our HHI and I am seriously tempted to quit.[/quote] I'm reading this as you and DH both making about the same amount (if half your income is a quarter of your household's). Unless you're both making a lot of money, I would be hesistant to quit. In our case, we definitely still need that cash that would be "left" if you just subtracted daycare from my income, not to mention my health insurance and employer retirement contributions.[/quote]
