[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who work long hours with SAHM spouses are insane. They really are.

Do not work long hours (50+) for money unless you truly find the work personally fulfilling. It's NOT worth it and you WILL regret it in the end when your money is taken from you anyway.

You wanna talk about "a life lost"? How about those surgeons who spend the prime of their lives studying, followed by spending their middle age working long stressful hours,  not seeing their kids for days at a time, only to get taken to the cleaners by their SAHM who thinks she "sacrificed" her life for him. BS, he is the one who made the sacrifices. But, he is the bad guy, right?

I don't think there is enough value given to the sacrifices of the breadwinners in these situations. They gave up a lot too. I sometimes think the current calculations don't really account for that. I wouldn't say that it's insane to have a SAHP though, just that I think that the discussion of sacrifices tends to be pretty one-sided.[/quote]
