[quote=Anonymous]I caution people to see that any number of factors (age of marriage, dual or single income, work with long hours versus work life balance, mother versus father as equal or imbalanced parents...) are still very individual scenarios. You could say certain combos are detrimental but there will always be plenty of people making that combo work best for their family. Others would be very unhappy with the situations you claim as ideal. Personalities, relationships, kids needs, goals, opportunities and privilege differ enough that there is no best prescription for winning at life. Even when you have seen a lot of anecdotal evidence in your community the flipside outcomes might be prevalent elsewhere. I wish I had been more thoughtful about all of that when I made choices in reaction to how I was raised as my set up is so much more privileged and my parents were just different people and their successes are more obvious with age, while I focused more on their failures in my youth [/quote]
