[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you asked for ramifications, and yes there are. 1. You will be contributing to the idea that women are supposed to stay home with the kids. That dad can't do it. 2. You are contributing to the idea that education and careers for girls/women are only a temporary thing until she gets married until she has babies. 3. Your career will likely never recover, that does not mean you will not go back to work, or that you will never be promoted, but it's unlikely you will have the career you could have had if you didn't take 5 + years off. You will be mommy tracked. 4. Your financial future and that of your family will be entirely dependent on your husband. [/quote] Ramification #2 seems a bit dramatic. My sisters and I were raised by a SAHM and we both work full time. People do what works for them[/quote] Agree. Also a SAHM raised by working mom.[/quote]
