[quote=Anonymous]You may not like this and I know how DCUM hates SAHM but that was what worked for us.  Both of us were in biglaw and the hours were insane.  I was able to go part time after DC1 but it was its part time pay with full time 24/7 connectivity expectation.  When I got pregnant with number 2. Decided to take a break from working bc I made much less than my DH and he had more job security.

It seemed to just work organically for our house.  The kids are now in middle school and I am still not ready to go back yet because they just need so much supervision and parenting.  Yes I made some sacrifices but I’m ok with that.

I was speaking to another mom yesterday who is a small business owner, so everything is on her.  The husband works too.  Her secret has been only have one kid, an aura or, and out source everything: a chef comes to cook meals for the week, a laundress, gardener, and an assistant to do everything else.  I don’t know how she can afford it but for them it works well.  There is no shame in that game of outsourcing if it works for you. [/quote]
