[quote=Anonymous]I am not a SAHM, but am thinking about it. I don't worry about my marriage ending, but I do occasionally think about how I would fare financially if it were to happen after I stop working. However, I suspect that divorce rates might be lower when one parent stays home to focus on kids. DH and I have been together a long time and are solid, but all the squabbles and tension that do enter into our relationship are a function of both of us having demanding careers and being stressed out trying to juggle those pressures with young kids and couple time (yeah right) and running a home. I honestly think that becoming a SAHM would lower my risk of divorce. I don't think it is a coincidence that US divorce rates skyrocketed when large numbers of women started working in high-pressure fields that were previously male dominated.[/quote]
