[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There may be more options than you think.  It’s been my experience that employers will lie and say the only option is for you to do exactly what they want you to do, but when you sit down to give your notice, other options magically appear.

This is the time to ask for exactly what you want.  If they can’t work with you, then you quit.  [/quote]

+1.

OP, I think women should have a backup/return to work plan. I don't know that I think a postnup is the way to go if you're going to do this for 3-5 years, but if you and your spouse decide you should be a SAHM long-term, then it's a good idea. Otherwise, maybe put resources towards you planning to on-ramp back to work in a few/several years.

I'm 52 and have seen several marriages that I thought were pretty solid fall apart in the late 40's. Cheating, growing apart, small cracks that become chasms over the years. And also several deaths. I don't mean to be a downer, but these things do happen.
