But some people say something is a tradeoff... like I see my child less for money. But I don't see that as a tradeoff. I see that as a normal healthy relationship. I don't think it is all that healthy for a child to only have their mother as a caregiver. I am not trading one thing for the other. I think it is healthier for a child to be with people other than me sometimes. I think it is healthier for my children to have an involved father. I think it is healthier for children to grow up and realize they are not the center of the universe and that sometime mom is more important to dad and dad is more important to mom right now so you have a babysitter.

It's not necessarily a trade off but a lifestyle that I believe in, that I planned and executed.  [/quote]

Agree. There are a few people on the thread begging for folks to agree there is some trade off to having mom work and IN MY FAMILY'S PARTICULAR SITUATION I don't agree that childcare was that trade off. I think my kids greatly benefited from it and like another poster mentioned I am a better mom and my DH a better dad for it. Won't claim that for every family but will for mine. [/quote]
