[quote=Anonymous]There have been quite a lot of posts on the mental tax on caring for children. While I agree that this an often unrecognized burden -- where are the posts on the OP's mental burden for carrying the entire mental load for their financial picture? We're not even talking about relative earnings here. We're talking about someone who puts her head in the sand about their financial picture. I am the female, sole breadwinner. I've carried the primary burden on child-related issues (not now, though). I've carried the burden on wage earning --I can't even imagine the stress, if my DH left me to be the only worrying about our financial picture. Many of you are completely underestimating this load - it was way way more taxing than making sure doctors' appointments, teacher conferences, birthday parties, sports practices, etc get calendared and attended to.
