[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The root of this question is that your wife does not want to work in order to be a SAHM. Did you discuss this before getting married? [/quote] Huh! I was a career woman who was clear that I would not be a SAHM after kids. DH agreed with me. Guess when I had that discussion? When I did not have kids!! Once we had kids, DH and I decided that having a SAHM at home is best for everyone's well being in the family. Of course, DH makes enough that I can hire staff and I don't have to fulfill all the roles at home. But, yeah, this narrative of a lazy woman wanting to be a SAHM is what makes other women ok about their own choices. But in the end, most moms who work are working because the household needs their financial contribution. [/quote]
