[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If both parents work full time then it's necessary[/quote] For you, maybe. Not for everyone. I think its great to hire cleaners if you want to and can afford it, but a family cleaning up after themselves rather than paying someone else to do it is hardly necessary. Insisting that it is "necessary" and not a luxury just adds another thing we need to do to keep up with the joneses.[/quote] I agree with the second poster. For me, this is pretty far down on the list of "extras" -- my husband is a great help with cleaning and neither of us are particularly angst ridden about having a perfect house. I'd rather spend that 100-400$ per month on wine, or better cheese, or savings. [/quote] The difference is that your "husband is a great help with cleaning." My husband hasn't cleaned anything in 20 years. And to be honest, we don't need the $250 that badly for savings or other splurges.[/quote]
