[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP: you can convince me that cooking and laundry is more stressful than yard work, but you cannot convince that it’s more stressful than an actual job. Sorry, it’s not.[/quote] I think it’s more stressful to not spend your life the way that you want to. I feel bad for women who want to SAH but need to work and women, like the OP, who want to work but are forced into a position where they need to SAH. That sucks. And yes, I know there there are stories of women who still SAH and live on $1k/month, and there are stories of women who manage to be amazing mothers while they are also curing cancer and their spouse works 100 hours/wk. But, outside if extremes, most women in the OP’s position more or less have to SAH and raise the children. And if that isn’t how you thought you were going to spend your life, that kind of sucks.
