[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sure a lot of SAHM's do know their husbands feelings, people. My DH owns his company and prefers I run our home life. Our HHI is high enough that we don't have to worry in that respect. If I did go back to work, my income would be a tiny fraction of his. We're both extremely happy and satisfied with our set up, as I think most likely are.[/quote]

+ 1.  When the DH makes enough money, and what the DW will bring is a fraction of what he makes, it may not be worth it for those people.  We are financially secure and DH's job is secure as well and he is doing what he loves to do.  For him to juggle more household, childcare, social life  responsibilities - if I were to WOH - would be very stressful.  Fortunately, he is aware of that because I was getting a paycheck for many years, which did not get used at all (leaving me a very wealthy, ridiculously young retiree...), and his life was miserable because he had to take on additional responsibilities at home.

Yes, when your DH wishes you being a paycheck, he will make sure you know that.  And - in homes where that income is needed, I don't see why he should not!
