[quote=Anonymous]A friend of mine stayed home for 9 years. She found something in her previous field very quickly, but she came in at a much lower pay than other people who had been working while she was out of the market. (seems fair - she missed out on 9 years of raises/promotions.) Ended up getting a 40%+ raise within 6 months, so she's much closer to what she would have been making. She sometimes wishes she hadn't taken the time out, but I tell her that she could have been laid off or gotten really burned out trying to juggle work/mom stuff, or mommy-tracked herself for awhile, so there's no telling what income she really gave up and she should give herself a break. :-)[/quote]
