[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I think the real problem here is that no one else can helpfully weigh in on what's the right decision for you re working or not.  If money isn't the primary hurdle to deciding whether or not to work then it is about your individual preferences - how much do you enjoy working?  How big a part of your identity/self-esteem etc... is what you do for a living?  Will you enjoy being at home w/ your kids (and all the related things like playgroups, school networks, volunteer stuff, etc...)?  Will you resent your husband's income, travel, intellectual stimulation if you're a SAHM?  How will you feel about not making your own money?  (That's a big thing - and much less about the dollars than the psychological impact/perception.)

So really, anyone else's opinions or choices are pretty irrelevant and I think that's why you might not be getting more helpful advice.  Only you can make this decision based on what you want and what's best for your family.

You're lucky to have the options but it's still a hard decision.[/quote]

You are probably right. I recognize this is totally a nice problem to have. I just really don't know how I would be as a SAHM?  And. Won't figure that out until it is too late. [/quote]
