OP, if you are still reading,

I was your wife 9 years ago, with a special needs infant and a demanding job (well, a crazy boss). We suffered through a year of hell, and I finally quit. At the time, DH was making 70K a year, max.

I felt so relieved and happy as a stay at home mother, and took my child to all his therapies and activities.
Fast forward to now and I am still a very busy SAHM with 2 kids, and we live in a SFH in Bethesda. HHI 100K.

We make it work.

We did not know till later we had special needs but I was miserable at my job. I planned to go back out of pressure from my family.  They had a bird women have to work.  My husband hated what my job and boss were doing to me and said if I want to stay home he fully supports it.  He slowly upped his income enough to replace enough of mine to make it work.  The first 8 months or so is hard regarded. I can never get my career back but the kids are far more important me.  My being home and taking care if almost everything allows him time with the kids when he is not working.  It benefits all of us.

Why not suggest part time for and you get a new job with more money. [/quote]
