[quote=Anonymous] If her marriage is shaky, it’s a very vulnerable time to stop working. After maternity leave, paying for childcare is the standard default option. Everyone chooses nanny or daycare and accepts it as an unavoidable expense—like the mortgage. She probably knows that if she stops working, her husband will not only dump every little household chore on her plate, but will also balk at paying for childcare in the future. She’ll have to justify going back to work. Plus she’ll be stuck with all the extra household tasks that he dumped on her when she started staying home. It’s a very hard dynamic to change.[/quote]
