[quote=Anonymous]well, we live in a country without universal healthcare and outrageous prices for higher education and no social safeguards for people in trouble. My husband makes about 2.5x my salary (I make 125), and we can afford for me to stay home. But he might die, get disabled, or file for divorce so I work as an insurance policy for all those possibilities. My own dad got disabled when I was 10 and it was pretty hellish on my mom to become breadwinner on a dime without decent job experience. But honestly, no other reason - I actually prefer my time with my kids much more than the office. [/quote]
