[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is so silly. I actually work part time and did not want to stay at home because I don't like the housework portion of staying home. But, dh was in a job with long hours and travel (and he made more than enough for me to stay home) and he really wanted me to stay home too make our lives easier (run the house, finances, etc). My job wasn't sure if they would offer me pt and if they didn't work that out I would have quit since my marriage happiness was more important than my job. I bet many others who stay at home have  spouses that work a lot.[/quote]

Yup. Not everyone is in a cushy line of work where you can clock out at 4:30 pm and make expect to make a great salary.[/quote]

My situation too.  My DH got offered a high paying job a couple of years ago - the trade off is he is in Asia 2 weeks a month and confused by jetlag the other 2 weeks - in return I dropped my hours at work (and totally agree w/poster above the housework is what I detest - I walk by our laundry area and cringe).
