[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The research is: If you have enough money for the things you need without working, then children are better off with a SAHM. If you don't have enough for those things, and being a SAHM means that you are constantly stressed about money, then kids are better off with mom working. "Enough money" is completely subjective. It isn't about whether or not the kids have the things you want them to have. It's about whether or not they feel the stress of parents worrying about money. [/quote] Really? Where is this research, pray tell? Also, given this framework you assert, why is it still culturally normative that the wealthiest families outsource childcare from the word go? Why all the nannies - and boarding schools - when the parents don’t even need to work on account of massive trust funds?[/quote]
