[quote=Anonymous]I would simply acknowledge the benefits of having a parent stay home. Then raise your very valid (!) concerns and why families usually need both parent to work. Depending on your earning capacity, I would ask if he would want to stay home if it's so important to him. Presumably, he would say no for x,y, z reasons and you say "I feel the same for x,y,z reasons." He will either drop it and acknowledge that he needs to read up on gender dynamics. I personally would not stay home nor have my spouse stay home. I have worked my ass off for my career and would not be a good SAHM. Also I make more money. Finally, I would be disgusted if my husband assumed that i should be the stay at home parent because i was a woman. I probably wouldn't raise kids with him. [/quote]
