[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh gosh, give the poor guy a break! He’s wildly unhappy? Let him try something else. I’m sorry but this seems wildly selfish. Nice your youngest is out of preschool, you could get a job because even though you discussed it, things have now changed. He’s begging you to let him stop being miserable. Please, let him. [/quote] Wow. I’m not not letting him do anything. I said I want to support him. I just am asking for anyone who has done this how the financial element worked for them. And he has always wanted me to stay at home because I handle 100% of everything else so he doesn’t ever have to stress about it. Kids are sick or off school yet again for a mcps holiday? No worries because I’m home to handle it. I made $30,000 as a preschool teacher. We aren’t retiring off of my income if I go back to work.[/quote] You need to rethink your working. The decision to have you stay home and handle everything home based made sense when he was at biglaw but if he's out of that, he can help out and you can split the load and you could work too. Is 30K the most you can make? Or are you certified to teacher public school where you can make more? [/quote]
