[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, Why is that your job must pay more than childcare and not your spouse's job that must pay more than childcare? If you, in the short term, worked for less than the childcare cost, you would still be gaining over the long term because you will be more employable with a job and more likely to be paid more after you get promotions. But you can't get promotions without any job at all. Just something to think about because too many women think they "have to earn more than childcare costs" for the job to be worth it. But, if hubby decides to leave you in the future, you will be in a better position by having worked. [/quote] Agree. You need to think of this as a longer term goal than the next year or two. So what if you can’t fully cover childcare costs for the next 12 months. What’s important are the 15 years after that.[/quote]
