[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My family needs my paycheck I am a single mom My DH is incapable of holding down a well paying job My job provides the health insurance I am afraid that my DH will divorce me one day I don’t like my kids Pick one. [/quote] Conversely, I am a SAHM because - My family does not need my paycheck. We have a lot of insurance and we are covered for health insurance benefits for life DH has a great secure job and is also capable of getting other similar well paying job if required. DH does not feel burdened by being the sole provider. We have a wonderful marriage and there will never be a divorce I love being with my kids. I am able to focus on their well being and education more by being at home. My DH and I want to give every advantage to our kids and having an involved, educated and loving parent home does just that. I am able to employ others to help with running the household and supervise them. it frees up time for other family members to relax. I like having a close knit family We have a home where the family members have less stress because a parent is home. We are reselient because we have the bandwidth and the infrastructure to handle unanticipated demand on our time. I do not find the American corporate work environment to be fulfilling or intellectually stimulating. Pick one[/quote]
